About Berkeley Park
Berkeley Park forms part of Cuerden Care’s residential and nursing care network for people with varying support needs, including older people, physical disabilities, sensory impairment and mental health needs. The group provides residential and nursing settings across Wigan, Preston and Bolton, with assessment used to understand the support, equipment and activities each person may require.
Cuerden Care also operates a specialist dementia care centre and has a specialist doctor available for specific needs. Its homes are designed as comfortable and supportive environments, with close attention to whether a particular centre can accommodate the person’s requirements. Families are encouraged to visit where possible, or to involve relatives and friends in the assessment process when a visit cannot happen before placement.

Questions families ask
How much does Berkeley Park cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Berkeley Park for its weekly fee. As a guide, Wigan council paid on average £1,034 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 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 Berkeley Park whether it takes residents funded by Wigan 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.
