Learning disability care in the Leeds council area
There are 110 learning disability care services in the Leeds council area registered with the Care Quality Commission. 52 carry a published CQC rating, and 42 of those are rated Good or Outstanding. The other 58 are unrated, which usually means they have not been inspected since registering rather than that anything is wrong. Privately arranged care is quoted by the hour, and the Homecare Association puts the minimum a provider must charge in 2026-27 at £34.42, or about £481.88 a week for two half-hour visits a day. The council paid providers £24.39 an hour in 2023-24, the 19th highest of 150 councils in England and 15% above the £21.19 median. That is 110 of the 243 home care services across the Leeds local authority. Your council decides what care you are entitled to and what it pays towards, so this is the area that matters for funding.

Learning disability care in Leeds: questions people ask
- How much does learning disability care cost in the Leeds council area?
- Agencies in the Leeds council area quote by the hour after an assessment, so there is no single price. The Homecare Association calculates that a provider needs to charge at least £34.42 an hour in 2026-27 to pay careworkers the statutory minimum for all their working time and run a compliant business. Two half-hour visits a day at that rate is roughly £481.88 a week. Leeds paid £24.39 an hour for the care it commissioned in 2023-24.
- Will the council pay for learning disability care in the Leeds council area?
- Leeds can arrange and fund care after a needs assessment, which is free and which anyone can request. What you contribute depends on a separate financial assessment. It paid providers an average of £24.39 an hour in 2023-24, the 19th highest of 150 councils in England. The Homecare Association's minimum sustainable price is £34.42 for 2026-27. Those are different years, so treat the pair as context rather than a like-for-like gap. What a council pays shapes which agencies will take council-funded work at all.
- Which learning disability care services in the Leeds council area are rated best?
- 52 of the 110 services in the Leeds council area carry a published CQC rating and 42 of those, 81%, are rated Good or Outstanding. That is below the 89% across England. None is rated Outstanding. A rating describes the service on the day it was inspected, so check the report date as well as the word.
- Is the Leeds council area well served for learning disability care?
- 110 of the 243 home care services in the Leeds council area are registered to support this, 45%, against 54% across England. That is less well served than most places, so widening your search may help. Registration is permission rather than specialisation, so it sets the size of the list rather than its quality.
- How do I choose a learning disability care agency in the Leeds council area?
- Start with what the regulator publishes, then ask what it cannot tell you: who would actually visit, whether it is the same carer each time, what happens when that person is ill, and how long a call really lasts. 58 of the 110 services in the Leeds council area carry no published verdict at all, so for those the questions are the only evidence you have. Every service here comes from the public register, and contacting one costs nothing: we take no fee and no commission.
