About The Mallards
Residential support at The Mallards is intended for people living with dementia, physical disabilities or age-related needs. The home forms part of a family-operated Bedford care group and combines everyday assistance with activities and access to visiting services.
Residents can access chiropody and optical services, while the wider provision also includes audiology, dentistry and religious services. Gentle exercise classes form part of the activity offer, and staff can provide end-of-life care as needs change. The approach leaves room for residents to follow lifestyle choices suited to their individual circumstances.

How much does The Mallards cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Mallards for its weekly fee. As a guide, Bedford council paid on average £1,050 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.
