The group
RPR sits within the Rhythmic group, alongside Rhythmic Care UK Ltd and Rhythmic Skills. Each arm has a defined role so commissioners, care providers, landlords and families always know who to speak to.
Three companies working in concert across the supported living model. Independent legal entities, common standards, separated remits.
Sources, leases and manages residential property used as supported living accommodation. The role of the housing provider: building, lease and statutory property compliance.
Delivers the regulated, person-centred care and support in the homes RPR manages. The role of the care provider: assessment, support plans, day-to-day staffing.
Workforce training and development across the group. Supports care staff progression and the consistency of practice in our homes.
Why we exist
Supported living works best when the home is a proper home, and the care is delivered by people who know how to do that work. Mixing the two roles in one organisation tends to blur both.
RPR exists to do the housing layer well, in partnership with regulated care providers and local authorities. Building, lease, statutory compliance, day-to-day property management: that’s our job. Everything else sits with the care provider, where it belongs.
Leadership
A small team, named in full. Each remit is documented so partners always know who to speak to.
How we work
Housing role and care role are written down before a placement begins. Nobody guesses what falls to whom.
Gas, EICR, EPC, fire risk, PAT, Legionella: held on file per property and produced on request, not just promised.
We lease for the long term and pay rent on a fixed cycle. Landlords get a predictable relationship, not a churn of tenancies.
Commissioners, care providers and landlords each have a named person with their phone number. Not a generic inbox.
We invest in the property between tenancies where agreed with the landlord, and look after it during. Residents should feel they live somewhere, not somewhere they're placed.
Enquiries get a substantive reply the same working day. If we can't answer the question yet, we say so and give a timeframe.
Where we work
Our current homes are in the boroughs and council areas immediately east of central London: Redbridge, Newham, Havering, and the adjoining Essex authorities. The team is based in Ilford and can be on a property in under an hour.
We expand carefully, through relationships. A new property joins the portfolio when a commissioner has identified demand, a care provider has confirmed they can staff it, and a landlord has agreed terms that suit a long lease.

For private landlords
Long lease. Guaranteed rent. Professional management. Property improvements where agreed. Send us a postcode and we’ll look it over.
