History with CQC

Sunnyside registered with CQC in September 2026, so it is a new service.

So far CQC has published one overall rating: Good, in May 2023.

At 3 years old, the rating may not reflect the current team. CQC prioritises higher-risk services, so ask about recent changes rather than assuming the worst.

Budgeting for this home

We estimate Sunnyside at £1,130–£1,380 a week for residential care (dementia), based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £59k–£72k.

Check what the weekly fee leaves out; hairdressing, chiropody, trips and newspapers are common extras.

People with savings under £23,250 may get help from Tameside Council after a needs and financial assessment.
