According to the home's website, the Chatsworth Cheshire Home opened in 1971 and is situated at 10 Equality Avenue, Croftdene, Chatsworth, Durban. It provides residential care for 35 adults with physical and sensory disabilities, mainly wheelchair users. Residents are referred by the Department of Social Development, by families who cannot cope and by hospitals. The home provides basic medical care, bathing, feeding, hospital visits, recreational activities, skills development programmes, social work services, physiotherapy, job placement and spirituality programmes. The Cheshire Village for Independent Living at the same address provides independent living facilities to 14 adults with various degrees of disabilities.
Typical costs for disability residential facilities in South Africa
We do not have Chatsworth Cheshire Home’s own fees. As a general guide:
Costs range from SASSA disability grant-funded beds (the disability grant is R2,400/month in 2026) in subsidised NGO facilities to roughly R8,000–R15,000/month in private facilities. In a state-contracted facility the grant is reduced to 25% (about R600/month) from the fourth month, with the subsidy covering the rest. Government-funded beds have long waiting lists.
These are typical South African ranges for this type of care, not this home’s prices. Actual fees vary by room type, level of care, and area, and they change every year - always confirm current rates with the home.
