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. ?
Run by Carebase (Chingford) Limited, Spinney (The) is a residential care home in London, Waltham Forest with 48 registered beds. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia. The typical home in Waltham Forest has 9 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in January 2026. 94% of homes in Waltham Forest also score 5. Across Waltham Forest, 93% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
Its CQC rating, from October 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in March 2018, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 35% of homes in Waltham Forest. Here is how rating age varies by council.
