Owner of the operator: the top of the chain of corporate persons with significant control at Companies House; “individuals” — the operator (or its holding company) is controlled by named individuals (not shown here); “registered charity”, “NHS”, “an individual” or “a partnership” — no company chain. Food: FSA rating of the kitchen at the home's postcode with a matching name.
These are facts from public registers, not a judgement of financial risk. An outstanding charge is usually a loan secured on property, which is normal for care homes. Ownership is the chain of corporate persons with significant control as filed at Companies House; filings can lag behind real changes. Names of individuals are not shown.
