About Us

A Warm, Home-from-Home in the Heart of Hove

Vallance Residential Care Home is a family-run care home situated in a quiet neighbourhood in Hove, East Sussex, just moments from the seafront and local amenities. We have been providing high-quality residential care since 4 January 1980 under the dedicated leadership of Matron Maria Mirza.

Our skilled and compassionate team is available 24 hours a day to support residents with their individual needs, while always encouraging independence and respecting each person's dignity. We offer daily home-cooked meals catering to all dietary requirements, a welcoming communal lounge, and a full programme of social activities.

We are registered with and regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), which rated us Good across all five inspection domains at our most recent inspection in January 2024.

Person-Centred Care

Every resident's care plan is built around their individual history, wishes, and preferences — not a one-size-fits-all approach.

★

Experienced & Qualified Staff

Our team holds NVQ/QCF care qualifications and receives regular training in dementia care, safeguarding, and first aid.

🌿

Comfortable & Homely

Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms, bring their own furniture, and — by arrangement — even bring a beloved pet.
