Start by contacting your preferred Tanglewood home or our central team. We can check availability and arrange a visit so you can experience the home for yourself.
You can also request a brochure for homes such as Bingley Park or Trent Bridge through our website.
2. Care Needs Assessment
A member of our admissions team will carry out a thorough and gentle assessment. This helps us understand whether Residential, Dementia, or Nursing care is needed. It also allows us to create a personalised care plan.
3. Financial Assessment
If you need help with funding, you can apply to your Local Authority for a financial assessment (means test). This determines whether you will receive financial support.
4. Moving In
Once assessments are complete, we ensure a smooth transition. Residents are welcome to bring personal belongings, photos, and favourite items to make the room feel like home.
The cost depends on the type of care needed (for example, standard residential or residential dementia care), the home’s location, and the room chosen.
Indicative prices range from around £1,100 to over £1,600 per week across Tanglewood homes.
For example:
There are no administration fees. Permanent care fees are usually paid monthly in advance.
Self-Funders
People with savings or capital above £23,250 (current threshold in England) usually pay the full cost of their care.

Local Authority Support (If Funds Reduce)
If you are self-funding and your savings approach £23,250, contact your Local Authority at least three months in advance. They can reassess and may begin to contribute.
