Questions families ask
Who is Fairways care home for?
Fairways supports adults with learning disabilities, associated complex needs and behaviours that may challenge.
Does Fairways have en-suite rooms?
Yes. Fairways has eight en-suite bedrooms, which residents can personalise to their own tastes.
How much does Fairways cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Fairways for its weekly fee. As a guide, Suffolk council paid on average £1,080 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.
