About Dimensions Somerset Ashbury
Dimensions Somerset Ashbury provides residential support for older people, younger adults and people with learning disabilities. Dimensions also supports autistic people, people with behaviours of distress and people with complex health needs across its specialist care services.
Its Individual Service Funds, called “Your Support Money”, allow the person receiving support to direct how their budget is used while Dimensions manages the money. This approach can create more choice and control over support, housing and daily life. The organisation also offers daily support for everyday living, complex support and short breaks. Its clearest differentiator is support money directed by the person receiving care, helping build a flexible plan around individual priorities.

Questions families ask
How much does Dimensions Somerset Ashbury cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Dimensions Somerset Ashbury for its weekly fee. As a guide, Somerset council paid on average £1,135 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 Dimensions Somerset Ashbury whether it takes residents funded by Somerset 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.
