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. ?
New Ridley Road is a 9-bed residential care home in Stocksfield, Northumberland, run by Newlife Care Services Limited. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Northumberland, where the typical home has 36 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in October 2019. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in April 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Northumberland, 28% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in April 2026. That is true of 95% of homes in Northumberland. In Northumberland, 91% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). 3 of Newlife Care Services Limited’s 3 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
