Bradley Bailey

Founder & Creative Director | Kind Heart Bench Project

Bradley Bailey is the visionary founder and Creative Director of the Kind Heart Bench Project—an inspiring social initiative that uses vibrant yellow benches as catalysts for open conversations around mental health.

From schools and transport hubs to memorial sites and public spaces across Cape Town, Bradley’s work transforms ordinary benches into safe, reflective spaces that foster connection, empathy, and support. Rooted in personal experience and a background in art and design, his mission is to make mental-health awareness visible, accessible, and deeply human.

The Heart of Cape Town is immensely proud to be a community partner of Bradley Bailey and the Kind Heart Bench Project, whose work is making a real and lasting difference in the lives of those who need it most.
