There is an information sheet at the front door with practical information about visiting the Museum.

We have induction loops in our shop and at our front desk. A portable induction loop can be set up for seated lectures, talks and events. Please request this when booking.

Many of the Warding staff have attended RNID Deaf Awareness training.

The Museum uses very little artificial light so it is best to visit when natural light levels are high. Additional overhead light can sometimes be provided on request.
