Questions families ask
How much does Highbury House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Highbury House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Shropshire council paid on average £2,227 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Highbury House whether it takes residents funded by Shropshire 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). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
