East London

East London is a home care agency based in Dagenham, in the Barking and Dagenham council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Dagenham office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of Aspire Care Services, which has 3 branches in England. The agency has been registered since April 2022.

East London has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.
