About Poppy Place
Poppy Place supports people aged 16 and over with learning disabilities and autism through residential and supported living services. The accommodation is adapted to the needs of the people who live there, with support designed to promote independence and choice. New Directions also offers short breaks and respite alongside its residential services.
Support can include managing a tenancy, personal budgets and transport, with people involved in decisions about where they live and who they live with. Plans are flexible and person-centred, and support may extend into work, volunteering, leisure and community activities. Local authority assessment determines eligibility and the number of support hours available.

Questions families ask
How much does Poppy Place cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Poppy Place for its weekly fee. As a guide, Warwickshire council paid on average £858 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 Poppy Place whether it takes residents funded by Warwickshire 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.
