What it may cost
We estimate Ayton House at £1,750–£2,140 a week for residential care (dementia), based on published prices in the region (Care UK homes publish prices above their area average). Over a year that is roughly £91k–£111k.
Ask whether the fee changes if needs increase, and what is extra: hairdressing, chiropody, outings and newspapers are often charged separately.
If savings are under the upper limit (£23,250 in England), West Sussex Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.
