About The Oakes Care Centre
Residential and dementia care at The Oakes Care Centre supports older people and younger adults. The centre forms part of Bridge Oak Care Homes, whose wider services include residential, dementia, respite and nursing care across different settings. Its care approach centres on a supported home environment for residents and families.
Bridge Oak promotes open conversations and ongoing support throughout the care journey. The Oakes therefore provides a residential dementia setting within a wider care network that can discuss other care types if needs change. Families can explore the home’s setting and practical arrangements when considering placement.

Questions families ask
How much does The Oakes Care Centre cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Oakes Care Centre for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kirklees council paid on average £957 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 Oakes Care Centre whether it takes residents funded by Kirklees 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.
