About Gryphon Place
Gryphon Place supports people with learning disabilities, mental health issues and physical disabilities through independent living and specialist nursing services. Swanton Care’s model is tailored to individual needs and aspirations, helping people work towards greater independence and community living.
The wider service includes supported living, outreach support, autism support, complex care and rehabilitation in a specialist nursing service. Support is flexible and responsive, with people supported through personal journeys rather than a single fixed pathway. Support for independent living and health and social care describes the practical focus for individuals needing structured, person-centred assistance.

Questions families ask
How much does Gryphon Place cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Gryphon Place for its weekly fee. As a guide, Norfolk council paid on average £1,199 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 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 Gryphon Place whether it takes residents funded by Norfolk 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). In a nursing home the NHS also pays £267.68 a week towards the nursing care of residents assessed as needing it. People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
