About Moorpine

Its adult day programmes are tailored to assessed needs and use person-centred approaches. Social and vocational training, supported employment and independent-living skills are also part of the wider offer. Moorpine’s confirmed role is residential care for people with learning disabilities, while the organisation’s broader services extend beyond the home.

Questions families ask
How much does Moorpine cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Moorpine for its weekly fee. As a guide, Sunderland council paid on average £931 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 Moorpine whether it takes residents funded by Sunderland 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.
