About The Limes
Young adults aged 18 to 25 with learning disabilities, autism and complex care needs can use The Limes for specialist residential accommodation and support during transition. The service is designed for people who may also experience communication differences, sensory processing differences, emotional wellbeing needs or behaviours that challenge.
Education, care and consultant-led clinical input are brought together through the Hesley Group’s integrated model. Positive Behaviour Support and clinical formulation help teams understand individual needs, while communication support and sensory regulation can contribute to greater stability. Young people can work on daily living skills, education, community access and independence through a pathway focused on meaningful quality-of-life outcomes rather than a single behavioural measure.

How much does The Limes cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Limes for its weekly fee. As a guide, Doncaster council paid on average £1,361 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.
