About Butterfly's Care Home
Registered for up to nine residents, Butterfly's Care Home provides residential care in Colchester for older people and adults with learning disabilities, mental health needs or physical disabilities. Its small scale supports a clearly defined setting with personalised daily care in a homely environment.
Butterfly's wider Essex provision includes supported living, domiciliary care and respite care, but this home is specifically presented as a residential care setting. Families considering it can therefore focus on the needs of a limited number of residents while exploring how its individual support would work in practice. The organisation also operates other homes and services across Essex, so the exact provision belongs to the individual setting.

How much does Butterfly's Care Home cost?
