A care home has been given a positive rating in Lambeth.

The Care Quality Commission is in charge of inspecting social care services across England. The organisation judges care providers across various metrics – with the best possible rating being 'outstanding', and the worst 'inadequate'.

Information from the CQC reveals Crownwise Limited - Streatham Common South was awarded a 'good' rating after an inspection on September 20. The rating was published on November 10.

A 'good' score means the provider is meeting expectations.
