About Rhyme House
Rhyme House provides residential support for people with learning disabilities, mental health needs, physical disabilities and complex support requirements. The home is part of Achieve Together, which also offers transition planning, hospital discharge support and internal nurse-led guidance across its specialist services.
The wider approach focuses on person-centred support, life skills and safer transitions into adult services or community living. Its clinical team contributes specialist healthcare insight, protocols, training and competency assessment. Nurse-led support that transforms care is the clearest differentiator in the provider’s model, particularly for people whose needs require structured clinical oversight.

Questions families ask
How much does Rhyme House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Rhyme House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,834 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Rhyme House whether it takes residents funded by Kent 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.
