Information for Visitors with Hearing Impairment

An induction loop runs through the Welcome Gallery, Auditorium and permanent gallery spaces. Users should switch their hearing aid to T mode and as they approach sound coming through in-built speakers it will pick up the amplification.

We can provide BSL interpreters for some events and family days. Please get in touch for more information.

Information for Visitors with Autism Spectrum Condition

Our Visual Story is available to help plan your visit. We also have a Visual Story for our Baking Workshops.

We are working hard to make all our programmes and events autism accessible. If you have any questions or requests to make your visit more accessible please email [email protected]

Our staff have received training to become Dementia Friends and are on hand if you need any support throughout your visit.
