Specialist care provider Choice Care Group has announced details of a new home for people with learning disabilities, autism and other complex needs in Oxfordshire.

The property, in Bicester Road, Kidlington, which will be known as Gosford House, is currently undergoing a refurbishment programme to ensure it is suitable for service users' needs once they move in.

The home, which will accommodate individuals over the age of 16, is scheduled to open in spring 2012, although Choice Care Group is already taking referrals for placements.

Edwina Johnston, chief executive of Choice Care Group, said: "By taking referrals now while refurbishment work is still being carried out, we can ensure that the environment at the property is as bespoke to the individuals' needs as possible once it opens next year.

"We are delighted to have been able to purchase this property in Kidlington, which will enable us to further enhance our services to individuals with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs in the Oxfordshire area."
