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 Trowbridge 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.

Our Trowbridge homes are woven into local life, with links to nearby schools, groups, churches, and volunteers who regularly visit and support residents.

A values-led approach you can rely on
As a charitable trust, OSJCT reinvests in our homes, colleagues, and residents.
This long-standing commitment helps ensure stability, quality, and a consistent focus on what matters most: dignity, wellbeing, and everyday comfort.
Families tell us they value this clarity and the peace of mind it brings when planning for the future.
My mother has settled very well at Goodson Lodge. The carers are always friendly and cheerful and treat residents with dignity. There are plenty of activities for residents covering a wide range of interests. The rooms are clean and welcoming and there is always plenty of food. Care is tailored to the needs of individual residents. I would highly recommend.

- Visit the homes in person: meeting the team, seeing daily life, and getting a feel for the atmosphere can help you understand whether the home feels right.
