About Fairfield House
Fairfield House provides 52-week specialist residential care for seven people with learning disabilities and complex needs. The community-based home is set in six acres on the Herefordshire and Shropshire border, creating a small setting for people needing support throughout the year.
The placement process includes an enquiry and assessment, with referrals handled confidentially during weekday office hours. Short assessments are free, while longer residential assessments may incur a charge. Specialist residential care for seven people gives the home a defined scale for individual support and community-based daily life.

Questions families ask
Are assessments at Fairfield House free?
Yes. Short assessments are free, although long residential assessments lasting more than four residential days may be charged.
Does a child need an EHCP to be considered for a place?
Yes. The child needs an Education, Health and Care Plan or a draft plan for the school to consider a place.
Can families visit Fairfield House before deciding?
Yes. After the assessment team reviews the child’s needs and considers the placement potentially suitable, they can invite the family to visit without obligation.
Does Fairfield House accept same-day admissions?
No. Admissions follow an assessment and the homes and schools are not registered for same-day admissions.
How much does Fairfield House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Fairfield House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Herefordshire council paid on average £1,796 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.
