Fairfield Playcentre

Fairfield Playcentre is a home care agency based in London, in the Camden 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 London office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by Play Adventures & Community Enrichment. The agency has been registered since February 2016.

At its latest inspection, published September 2019, the CQC rated Fairfield Playcentre Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
