My husband and I moved my father into the Bradley last summer after a significant life change. He was immediately welcomed by staff and the residents, making strong friendships and enjoying a social life he hadn’t experienced in twenty years. The staff are caring and incredibly flexible, making efforts to support residents at every turn. The Bradley itself comes as described, bright, spacious, and with many outstanding amenities including a library, gym, chapel, games room, leisure areas, and beautiful outdoor spaces.
