Questions families ask
Who is Orchard End suitable for?

Do they offer supported living as well as residential care?
Yes. They provide both supported living and residential services, with support shaped around each person's life and needs.
How much does Orchard End cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Orchard End for its weekly fee. As a guide, Gloucestershire council paid on average £1,910 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.
