CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Lime Street is one of 171 care homes in Worcestershire: a 8-bed residential care home in Evesham, run by Noble Care Limited. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in Worcestershire has 35 beds, so this one is on the small side.
In Worcestershire, 85% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. 92% of homes in Worcestershire also score 5. 1 of the 6 nearest homes is also Outstanding. 4 of Noble Care Limited’s 4 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
CQC last rated the home in February 2019, giving it Outstanding overall. It was Outstanding for caring, responsive and well-led as well. For safe and effective, the rating was Good. It was also rated Outstanding at the inspection before, in July 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 39% of homes in Worcestershire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
