WHAT IS THE BRADBURY CENTRE?

 The Bradbury Centre is a purpose built centre for the over 60’s and those with special needs.  The building of the Bradbury Centre was started in the autumn of 1997 and  opened in June 1998 .  It was made possible through the generosity of a number of charitable trusts, of which the Bradbury Foundation (Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank) was a major contributor-hence the Centre’s name.  However none of this would have been possible without local support and fund-raising.

Over the years the centre has progressed from running Lunch Club one day a week to the now four days, and as of the 4th June 2012 we also took on the role of a Health and Well-being Centre providing a new integrated service, combining the Lunch Clubs and the clients who wish to come for Day Care.

The Bradbury Centre is well positioned in Bonar Bridge, with views across the Kyle of Sutherland.  The Centre is well known within the community and has built a good reputatuon for the services we provide to the older community members.  We are co-located with the Medical Centre and the new Migdale Hospital which makes it ideal for supporting local older people in recovery from illness or those receiving Rehabilitation and Reablement Service.

We have a large open plan lounge & dinning area, commercial standard kitchen, fully accessible bathing, laundry facility and a multi purpose room.  Our gardens are well laid out with a green house and raised beds.

The Centre is available for hire when not in use.
