The home changed owner in June 2024. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?

CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in January 2018. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. Its rating before that, in November 2015, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 52% of homes in Thurrock. Here is how rating age varies by council.
