About Alison House
Children and young adults with complex social, emotional and behavioural needs receive therapeutic and residential care at Alison House. The model joins residential support with therapeutic work and education, bringing care workers, nurses, psychologists and teachers into one team around each young person.
Therapeutic care extends into daily interactions, formal therapy sessions and scheduled key-worker sessions. Alison House uses a trauma-informed PACE approach in its care and support, linking everyday experiences with emotional healing and growth. The service suits placements requiring more than residential accommodation alone, with practical support embedded in daily life. Residential, therapeutic and educational care are joined around each young person’s needs and circumstances.

Questions families ask
How much does Alison House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Alison House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Gloucestershire council paid on average £1,714 a week for a nursing care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,521 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Alison House whether it takes residents funded by Gloucestershire council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). In a nursing home the NHS also pays £267.68 a week towards the nursing care of residents assessed as needing it. People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
