About Khiron Bungalow
At Khiron Bungalow, we offer residential care in the heart of Wantage, Oxfordshire, supporting a genuinely broad range of people and needs under one roof. We work with older adults, younger adults, and people living with mental health conditions, and we also provide respite care for those who need a short break from their usual arrangements, whether that is planned or at short notice. We understand that the people who come to us often arrive at a difficult point in their lives. That is true whether someone is navigating challenges around eating disorders, alcohol or drug misuse, or simply needs consistent support with day to day living. We do not take a one size fits all approach. Each person is treated as an individual, and we take time to understand what matters to them, what their routines look like, and how we can make their time here feel as settled and comfortable as possible. The bungalow setting itself lends a quieter, more domestic feel than larger residential buildings often can. We think that environment matters enormously when someone is trying to feel at home, and we have worked to create a space that feels genuinely welcoming rather than clinical. Our team is experienced across the range of needs we support, and we are honest with people and their families about what we can offer and what to expect from us. Good communication with families and loved ones is something we take seriously, because we know that trust is built gradually and through consistent follow through, not through promises alone. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and are committed to transparent, accountable care. If you would like to find out more about whether Khiron Bungalow might be the right fit for you or someone you care about, we would be very happy to have a conversation.
