A relaxed morning for exploring the Museum in a quieter setting. Created for neurodivergent and SEND visitors, those with sensory processing differences, and anyone who would enjoy a calmer environment for their visit.
At the Welcome Desk you can pick up a backpack* with activities to help the whole family explore the museum together.
Although this is a relaxed opening, there may still be some noises around the Museum, so please do bring along ear protectors if you need them.
All ages welcome.
Book a space by emailing Helen: [email protected]
*The Museum’s SEND-friendly backpacks for families were developed in collaboration with RAL Space and Iffley Academy specialist school.
