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. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Run by Jiva Healthcare Limited, The Seagulls is a residential care home in Brighton, East Sussex with 6 registered beds. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in East Sussex has 24 beds, so this one is on the small side.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in January 2020. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That matches its previous rating, from April 2017. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 35% of homes in East Sussex. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Across East Sussex, 85% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in May 2026. That is true of 90% of homes in East Sussex. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. It is one of 4 homes run by Jiva Healthcare Limited. 4 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding.
