About The Conifers
Adults with mild, moderate or severe learning disabilities can receive residential support at The Conifers through Care Opportunities, a specialist independent social care provider. The service is intended for people who may need structured assistance while developing independence and a positive presence in the community.
Support packages begin with an initial assessment that gathers information about needs and risks before support starts. Care Opportunities then uses an evidence-based, person-centred approach, with outcomes considered over the long term. The wider provider also offers supported living for people in their own homes, where assistance is designed to promote independence in everyday life. This gives families a choice between residential support and support delivered in a familiar home setting.

Questions families ask
How much does The Conifers cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Conifers for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hampshire council paid on average £1,214 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 The Conifers whether it takes residents funded by Hampshire 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.
