About The Tides
The Tides provides residential support for up to eight men and women with learning and physical disabilities in Broadstone. The service can also support people with autism, communication difficulties and epilepsy, with care delivered through a person-centred plan addressing health and communication needs. Its registration also covers older people and younger adults.
The home is a small residential setting rather than a general mental health hospital or addiction service. Priory’s location information identifies eight bedrooms and describes support designed around individual circumstances. This makes The Tides relevant to people seeking supported accommodation with a defined capacity and specialist disability remit, particularly where communication, physical health or epilepsy form part of the support picture.

Questions families ask
How much does The Tides cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Tides for its weekly fee. As a guide, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole council paid on average £1,295 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 Tides whether it takes residents funded by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole 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.
