Care home figures are averages for England; too few homes in Swindon publish a fee for a local median. Fees vary widely between homes. At home you keep paying the household bills and the carer's food, so add those before you compare.
For a couple the gap is wide: one live-in carer for both of you is about £1,350 a week, and a care home charges two fees.
Past about 35 hours a week of visits, live-in care costs about the same and somebody is there all day.
