Families with SEND
For families with Special Educational Needs, including Autistic Spectrum Disorder, we open outside our regular hours on certain special days.
Enjoy the Museum at a quieter time, free from the general public, and with many of the gallery sounds turned off. Explore our All Aboard family spaces in peace, have a go at our holiday activities or get hands-on with genuine parts of transport history.
We now offer a sensory space at these events. Feel free to come in and use any of the sensory objects including our bespoke stimming board, carefully crafted by our Learning Team to provide a calming sensory experience for our visitors.
Advanced booking is essential as places are limited and must be booked online.
Children and young people under 18 go free; adults charged general admission rate, carers go free.
