Meet The Manager
Christine Bunce is Home Manager at Kyn Bickley.
Christine grew up in California near Napa Valley and studied psychology at university before completing a Master's and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology.

Set in the charming Greater London borough of Bromley, KYN BICKLEY is a half-hour drive or 45-minute train ride away from Charing Cross station.
This luxury care home in Bromley occupies a neo-classical building designed as a warm and welcoming space with 86 superbly comfortable private bedrooms; elegant shared rooms for dining and reclining; and inviting outdoor terraces overlooking landscaped gardens bordered by woodland.
