    The Bradbury Centre is a purpose built drop-in centre which opened in 2005. It is located in Grange Road, a ten minute walk from the town centre.

    The centre has been described by members as 'Kingston's best kept secret' and 'a youth club for seniors'. Come and see for yourself!

    The Bradbury provides many opportunities for people - of any age - who would like to volunteer their time and energy. Please see our volunteering page for more information.

    The Bradbury is open to all Kingston Borough residents.

    The Centre was built by Age Concern Kingston with the substantial help of The Bradbury Foundation.  It was opened by actor Richard Briers in April 2005.

    The Bradbury is a great venue for celebrations and can be hired by members.  For further information please contact the Centre Administrator.
