How much does The Herons cost?

As a guide, Nottinghamshire council paid on average £841 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.
