About Greenbanks
Greenbanks supports adults with learning disabilities in a residential home where care is tailored to individual routines, goals and independence. Residents receive help with personal care, mobility, medication and daily activities, with support available around the clock.

How much does Greenbanks cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Greenbanks for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,096 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.
