Let’s talk plainly about money, because for most families it’s a real and pressing part of the decision. A residential care home in the UK now averages around £4,000 a month. GrandyGo starts at £995 a month, all-inclusive. Here’s what that difference actually means.
What £4,000 often buys back home
UK care-home fees are high and rising, and they frequently cover a single room, institutional meals, limited activities, and extra charges layered on top. Families watch savings and even homes drain away — often for a quality of life that feels more like managed decline than living.
What £995 includes at GrandyGo
Our monthly price is genuinely all-inclusive:
- A private, en-suite apartment with daily housekeeping
- Three fresh, dietitian-planned meals a day
- 24/7 on-site nursing and daily wellbeing checks
- The full social and activities programme
- Support from an English-speaking team
Flights and trips home are arranged for you at cost. That can be up to £36,000 a year that stays in the family rather than disappearing into fees.
Why it costs so much less
This isn’t about cutting corners — it’s about geography. The cost of living, staffing and property on the Turkish coast is far lower than in the UK, so the same money stretches into private apartments, fresh food, real activities and round-the-clock care. You’re not buying less; you’re buying it somewhere it costs less.
Better life, lower cost
The honest headline is this: for roughly a quarter of UK care-home fees, a parent can have sunshine, community, good food and proper support. You can see the full picture of daily life in our yearly programme, and reserve a place with a small, refundable deposit.
