About Castleford Home for Older People
Castleford Home for Older People provides residential care for older people, including those with dementia and physical disabilities. Its registered scope also includes younger adults, making it a residential setting for people who need day-to-day support across different age groups.
The home is part of the adult social care landscape associated with Lancashire County Council. Families exploring care can consider it as a council-linked residential service for older people or someone living with dementia. The evidence does not establish specific facilities, room arrangements or activities, so the practical offer centres on accommodation and ongoing care.

Questions families ask
How much does Castleford Home for Older People cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Castleford Home for Older People 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 Castleford Home for Older People 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.
