Budgeting for this home

We estimate Bere Grove Care Home at £1,460–£1,780 a week for residential care (dementia), based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £76k–£93k.

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), Hampshire Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.
