About Leighton House
Residential support at Leighton House serves older people and adults with learning disabilities, mental health needs, physical disabilities and sensory impairment in Rochdale. The wider PossAbilities organisation also offers supported living, outreach, day services and employability support across the North West and West Yorkshire.
Its day services in Rochdale help adults with learning and physical disabilities meet people, learn skills and take part in meaningful activities. Supported employment helps people find work at their own pace, while broader support is built around individual goals and aspirations. PossAbilities is a not-for-profit organisation, with services designed around the person rather than a standard package. Skill-building day services are a notable part of the wider offer.

How much does Leighton House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Leighton House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Rochdale council paid on average £796 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.
