*Guests with health conditions or impairments may be entitled to a free of charge carer's ticket upon proof of eligibility. Accepted forms of eligibility include; Disability Living Allowance or Personal Independence Payment letter, letter from GP or Consultant confirming the need for a full time carer or a current and valid Access Card displaying the '+1 essential companion' symbol. A maximum of one free of charge carer will be admitted per eligible paying guest. Additional carers require a valid ticket.
We also offer selected days for our autistic guests with fewer visitor numbers to ensure lower noise levels and allow young explorers increased movement around our exhibits. Get in touch with us to find out more about our enhanced accessibility dates.
