About The Laurels
A small, family-run home for older people living with dementia, The Laurels centres care on individual routines and life stories. The team supports residents to maintain independence and comfort in a settled residential environment.
Home-cooked meals use quality local produce and include traditional dishes and lighter choices. Dietary requirements, allergies and personal preferences are considered, while mealtimes are relaxed and sociable. The close-knit team works with residents and families to build relationships, maintain dignity and create a sense of belonging in daily life. Its approach is grounded in home-cooked meals with local produce and care shaped around each resident.

How much does The Laurels cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Laurels for its weekly fee. As a guide, Gloucestershire council paid on average £1,005 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.
