About The Ridings
The Ridings supports older people, including those living with mild to moderate dementia, through residential care and shorter respite stays. Personal accommodation is combined with communal activities, dining and access to outdoor space.
The process begins with a pre-assessment to understand care needs before moving in. Families can arrange an in-person or virtual show round, then discuss the move, possessions and ongoing support with the home team. Residents can maintain links with relatives and the local area, while activities and daily routines provide opportunities for social connection. The service therefore accommodates both longer-term residential care and short breaks.

Questions families ask
How much does The Ridings cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Ridings for its weekly fee. As a guide, Oxfordshire council paid on average £1,013 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 Ridings whether it takes residents funded by Oxfordshire 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.
