About Whitegates Respite
Whitegates Respite provides specialist short-term support for autistic adults in Worksop, giving families and carers a break from their caring role. Stays can last from a few days to a few weeks, making the service suitable when someone needs planned respite rather than a permanent move.
The service is part of Autism East Midlands’ adult support provision. Its accommodation services are designed to help autistic people develop confidence, independence and practical skills, while supported living and community services provide additional routes to ongoing support. Whitegates opened in Nottinghamshire specifically to offer respite services for autistic adults.

How much does Whitegates Respite cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Whitegates Respite for its weekly fee. As a guide, Nottinghamshire council paid on average £841 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.
