CQC Registration FAQs for Brighton
Questions specific to registering a care service in Brighton.
Which commissioner covers Brighton for care services?
Brighton & Hove City Council is a unitary authority that commissions care separately from East Sussex and West Sussex County Councils. If your service is in Brighton itself you will deal with the city council; services in surrounding Sussex fall under the relevant county council. We help you identify the right authority and prepare for both CQC registration and local commissioning.
Is there demand for supported living and mental-health care in Brighton?
Yes. Brighton has notable demand for supported living and mental-health related care, reflecting the city's diverse population. These services carry specific CQC expectations around risk management, capacity and person-centred support. We help you build the policies and Statement of Purpose needed for these service types.
What areas around Brighton have the most residential care demand?
Coastal towns such as Worthing, Eastbourne and Hove have older populations and steady residential demand. Central Brighton has higher premises costs but strong domiciliary and supported-living demand. We advise on where local demand aligns with your service model.
