How the ratings break down

Good or Outstanding: 31
Requires improvement: 9
No published rating: 1
Rating over five years old: 7

A pattern across an operator’s homes tells you something a single inspection cannot — but so does the age of those inspections. 7 of these homes were last judged more than five years ago. See our research on inspection ages.

Grouped by council. Each home shows its rating and how old that rating is.

What a place with Runwood is likely to cost

Operators do not publish a single national price, and neither will we invent one. What each of these homes charges a self-funding family depends on the home, the room and the level of care.

What you can compare it against is what the local council pays. Where we have a council’s published rate it appears on each home’s page, and across England those rates run from £768 to £1,182 a week for a standard residential place. See what councils pay, and ask the home directly for its own figure.

Ask two things: what the weekly fee is for a self-funder, and whether the home will keep a resident at the council rate if savings later fall below £23,250. Get the second answer in writing.
