About Lime House
Compassionate support for older people, including those living with dementia, is the central service at Lime House. Its registered scope also covers mental health, and the home forms part of Nugent’s adult services.
Branch-specific information about facilities and daily routines is limited, so Lime House is best understood through its residential care role and connection to Nugent’s wider support network. Families can explore the home alongside services such as individualised community support and floating support. Support for older people, including those living with dementia gives the service its clearest focus.

Questions families ask
How much does Lime House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Lime House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Wigan council paid on average £807 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 Lime House whether it takes residents funded by Wigan 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.
