About Kingston House
Kingston House provides residential support for people with dementia, learning disabilities and mental health needs. Its care sits within a wider specialist service that aims to promote independence, confidence and fulfilling daily life for people with complex needs.
Support can include residential care, supported living and transition planning, with teams working alongside families, care managers and other professionals. The wider organisation also provides training and structured pathways for people moving between services. Kingston House is therefore relevant for families seeking a residential setting connected to broader specialist support rather than an isolated care placement. Our adults’ services provide a comprehensive range of tailored support across residential and supported living environments.

Questions families ask
How much does Kingston House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Kingston House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,096 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Kingston House whether it takes residents funded by Kent council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
