About Icknield Court

Icknield Court provides residential dementia care for older people, with day care and respite services available through its wider care organisation. Care plans are shaped around each person’s life story and routines, while activities can include music, gardening and baking. Residential and early-stage dementia care is designed for adults living in a residential setting.

The home’s care approach supports memory, orientation and independence through trained teams, clear signage and familiar routines. Respite care can help families arrange a short stay while a carer takes a break. Icknield Court is registered as a care home without nursing, with dementia and older people listed within its regulated scope.

Questions families ask

How much does Icknield Court cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Icknield Court for its weekly fee. As a guide, Buckinghamshire council paid on average £1,183 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.

Who pays for a place in this home?

Ask Icknield Court whether it takes residents funded by Buckinghamshire 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.
