Children will need adult supervision, so please book the room for all adults and children. We offer a drop-in session between 3.30 - 4.30pm. For this hour there is no need to book and the room is available on a first come, first serve basis. While you are visiting, please ask staff about our new Sensory Explorer Bags. These bags provide a sensory and tactile self-led offer for families to use when visiting all our spaces.
