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
Hertfordshire spent an average of £922 a week per resident on residential 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
