About our versatile space
The Queen Elizabeth Centre, which includes the Rangoonwala Conference Centre, was opened by Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in December 2018. The centre is dedicated to the promotion of children’s rights and best practice. The new building is located in the heart of Coram’s historic site and is a celebration of the 350th anniversary of the birth of the charity’s founder, Thomas Coram.
Our campus was established over 275 years ago as the Foundling Hospital when Bloomsbury was made up of farmers’ fields. Today, although just a few minutes walk from King’s Cross, Euston and Russell Square stations, our contemporary office spaces retain some of that peaceful and historic atmosphere and provide an exceptional setting for meetings, interviews, seminars, training and corporate events. Hire our space today – all proceeds go to creating better chances for thousands of children across the UK.
