About Carleton House
Carleton House supports adults with mental health conditions, including complex needs, to manage their condition and build greater independence. Residential support focuses on daily living, medication management and access to health and social care services, with packages tailored to individual needs and recovery goals.
The home is a Georgian house in a quiet conservation area of Fulwood, set in extensive gardens with communal areas inside and outside. Residents have their own front door and can work towards reconnecting with local communities, relationships and activities that matter to them. Carleton House can also provide respite services and support people who are ready to move on.

Questions families ask
How much does Carleton House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Carleton House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Lancashire council paid on average £925 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 Carleton House whether it takes residents funded by Lancashire 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.
