Questions families ask
Who does Blackberry Hill support?
Blackberry Hill supports up to 10 adults with epilepsy, autism, learning disabilities and low-level behavioural needs.
Is support available 24 hours a day?
Yes. Blackberry Hill has support available 24 hours a day, with at least six day carers and two waking night carers on hand.
How much does Blackberry Hill cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Blackberry Hill for its weekly fee. As a guide, Somerset council paid on average £1,797 a week for a residential care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,883 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
