About Arbor House
Older people can receive residential support at Arbor House, a family-run Leicester care home that includes dementia and respite care. Its registered scope also covers mental health, physical disabilities, sensory impairment and younger adults, allowing the home to support varied needs within a residential setting.
Care plans are created with residents, families and friends, then reviewed and updated as needs change. Residents can maintain freedom of choice and independence, pursue hobbies and keep photographs or treasured possessions nearby. The home’s approach centres on personal care, familiar surroundings and a homely daily routine, with support shaped around the individual rather than a fixed schedule.

Questions families ask
How much does Arbor House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Arbor House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Leicester council paid on average £1,062 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 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 Arbor House whether it takes residents funded by Leicester 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). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
