The Guildford Institute

About The Guildford Institute

A local registered charity, we have been providing exciting educational and cultural events to the adult community for over 130 years. We focus on offering a welcoming space for everyone to learn, socialise and take time for their wellbeing. Open to all, we provide a varied activity programme filled with courses, talks, events and music nights. There are opportunities to learn, create and be entertained year-round! We are also home to a group of talking therapists who operate from our dedicated, newly-opened Community & Wellbeing Centre. For any foodies, our welcoming community café, V Café, provides quality, healthy and nourishing food in a welcoming space. And for book lovers, we have a beautiful historic library and archive - a treasure trove for local history!
