How much does Wellfield cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Wellfield for its weekly fee. As a guide, Newcastle upon Tyne council paid on average £1,069 a week for a nursing care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,521 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
