Likely fees

We estimate Willow Park at £1,170–£1,440 a week for nursing care, based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £61k–£75k.

NHS-funded nursing care covers part of the nursing cost for eligible residents and is paid directly to the home.

If savings are under the upper limit (£23,250 in England), Newcastle upon Tyne Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.
