Why families trust our Brockworth care homes
Choosing a care home is about more than facilities; it’s about trust, people, and feeling confident in the decision you’re making. Families in Brockworth value our steady, thoughtful approach and the reassurance that comes from being genuinely listened to.
Care that feels personal
In our Brockworth home, care begins with understanding the person behind the care plan. We take time to learn about life stories, preferences, and routines so that support feels familiar rather than clinical.
This attention to detail helps residents settle more comfortably and gives families confidence that their loved one is known and respected.
Experienced and supportive teams
Our Brockworth care teams are trained, compassionate, and consistent. Familiar faces, structured routines, and clear communication create stability, something families often say makes a meaningful difference.
Care evolves as needs change, without losing the warmth that helps a house feel like home.
Simple guide to fees & funding
Paying for long-term residential or nursing care can feel overwhelming, and understandably so. Unlike NHS healthcare, care home services are not free for most people. How much you contribute depends on personal circumstances, including income, assets, and care needs. At OSJCT, we aim to make the process of funding care as clear as possible.
What affects the cost of care?
- Type of care - residential, nursing, dementia, or respite
- Location - care costs in Brockworth may differ from other parts of the UK
- Individual needs - the level of daily support required
- Financial circumstances - state or private funding
What funding options are available?
- NHS Funded Nursing Care (FNC): A weekly payment from the NHS to contribute toward the cost of nursing care if it is required. This does not cover all care home fees - only the nursing element.
- Local authority funding: Means-tested support from your local council based on your finances and care needs. This may include schemes such as Deferred Payment Agreements, which allow you to use the value of your home to fund care, or the 12-Week Property Disregard, where your home is temporarily ignored in financial assessments if you have been in hospital or are receiving permanent care.
- Self-funding: If your savings and assets exceed the threshold for local authority support, you will need to pay privately for your care. Independent financial advice is recommended to plan effectively and explore all available options.
Getting the right guidance
Care funding can be complex, so we always recommend speaking with an independent specialist care fees adviser. OSJCT is affiliated with SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisers), a professional body dedicated to advisers specialising in later-life financial planning, including care home funding.
Part of the local community
Brockworth sits close to Gloucester and Cheltenham, with strong community links across the area. Our home reflects this sense of connection, welcoming local involvement and helping residents stay connected to familiar surroundings and loved ones.
Safety, expertise & not-for-profit transparency
As a charitable trust, OSJCT reinvests every penny back into our homes, colleagues, and residents, never shareholders.
Families can feel confident knowing our focus is always on people, not profit. This commitment means care in our Brockworth homes remains safe, personal, and sustainable for the future, guided by strong governance and values.
We are very pleased with the care that my brother is getting at Millbrook Lodge. His health was very poor when he moved in, but it has improved considerably. A lot to do with this is the care and attention that he has been receiving. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.

How to choose the right care home in Brockworth
Choosing the right care home can feel overwhelming, especially if decisions need to be made quickly. Many families in Brockworth find it helpful to focus on a few key considerations:
- Understand care needs: Consider whether residential, dementia, or short-term respite care is required now, and whether support may need to adapt in the future.
- Visit and observe: Meeting the team and experiencing the atmosphere in person often provides clarity and reassurance.
- Think about familiarity: Remaining close to Brockworth, Gloucester, or surrounding villages can help residents feel settled and supported.
