“Leading the change isn't about being the biggest. It's about proving there's a better way to support people, then showing the whole sector how we did it.”

Anastasia leads psychological support across all 18 homes. She holds 17 years of international experience and runs 1:1s, groups, and team training. Commissioners don't pay extra for any of it.
Because mental health includes the body.

Not Bingo at 3pm.
Occupational therapist with 16 years' experience. Therapeutic riding, day trips, festivals, art, cooking, fitness. Recovery comes from doing, not just talking.
Into our studio flats, same trusted team.
Still a Diverse Services property. Still the same management, the same familiar team. Less support, more independence. The progression continues, often all the way to full independent living, employment, and a life of their own.
A home of your own
Adults with severe and enduring mental health needs who need staff on hand day and night, including people stepping down from hospital.
People who are more settled and ready for less support, including people stepping down from our 24-hour homes.
People who are more settled and ready for less support, including people stepping down from our 24-hour homes.
People getting ready for a home of their own.
The goal of the whole pathway: a front door of your own.
Their own home, their own routine, and their own goals. Help finding a tenancy, settling-in visits after the move, and an open door if things get hard.

Read the articleSubmit the referral on our referral page. We aim to assess every referral within days. Over the past two years our median time from referral to assessment has been 3 days, and 82% of people were assessed within a week. If it's a yes, we agree the placement plan with you and the person considering the move.
We do. They sit on staff as salaried roles, not bought in extras. Commissioners pay one weekly rate for the placement and the entire team is included. No separate invoices for psychology sessions.
Yes. We support people coming out of acute mental health wards, secure settings, and people on CTOs. Most of the people who come to us are referred by hospital discharge teams across West London. We are CQC registered for our Foxglove home.
Everyone who lives with us has their own room, plus a shared kitchen and lounge for when they want company. Each home's page shows its rooms. Rosewood House is a little different, with fully self contained one-bed flats with shared communal space. See all 18 homes.
If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you straight at assessment. We never say yes just to fill a room. If something changes after move in and the placement isn't working, we work with the commissioner to find a better path. We never end a placement abruptly.
When someone is ready for less support, they step down into one of our own studio flats. Still a Diverse Services property. Still the same management team they already trust. Less intensive support, more independence, and we continue with them all the way to full independent living, often into employment. The pathway runs: 24 hour staffed, 9 to 5 daytime, Diverse studio flat, full independence. See the full pathway.
Yes, warmly. Email us with the borough and we'll arrange a time. We don't have a public reception, as our office is virtual, but every property has a manager who can give a tour and answer questions.
Three things. First, our own in-house specialist team, covering psychology, nutrition and activities, all employed by us. Second, the people we support step down into our own studio flats rather than being handed off to another provider, so the relationship continues all the way to independence and often into employment. Third, the founder still picks up the phone and meets every commissioner personally. Most providers can't say any of those three.
