From the public register, which we read every week. Registration means a home is allowed to operate and is inspected; it is not a recommendation. Visit, ask to see the most recent report, and ask about fees in writing. Where our data comes from
Essex spent an average of £1,134 a week per resident on nursing care for over-65s in 2024-25. That is a council average, not this home’s fee, and people paying for themselves are usually charged more. What every council pays
Our guides cover what to ask on a visit and get in writing and who pays for a care home.
