About Fritham Lodge
Fritham Lodge provides residential care and supported living for adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health conditions and associated needs. It forms part of Choice Care’s specialist provision across Hampshire and Berkshire, with support shaped around each person’s life, goals and preferred way of living. The registered service includes mental health and younger adults.
Choice Care helps people and families explore the right support, including residential services, supported living, specialist therapies and referral routes. Its approach considers more than accommodation, covering the people around someone, the support they receive and the opportunities they want to pursue. Fritham Lodge is therefore relevant where a person needs a structured home environment with personalised support and a focus on confidence, independence and belonging.

Questions families ask
Who does Fritham Lodge support?
The group supports adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health conditions and associated needs through personalised residential and supported living services.
Is care at Fritham Lodge personalised?
Yes. Choice Care shapes support around the person's life, focusing on their needs, preferences, independence and the kind of life they want to lead.
How much does Fritham Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Fritham Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Southampton council paid on average £1,591 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.
