Working with the local community
The communities team encourages new visitors
to connect with a collection that spans human history and
the entire globe.
In the last year, we have worked in partnership with community
centres, women’s groups, offenders, mental health groups, looked
after children and supplementary schools.
We are keen to work with new groups, so if you are a member or
leader of a group who would like to explore the idea of visiting
the Museum then please get in touch with us.
