We nurture every young person’s curiosity and creativity through hands-on learning rooted in real stories and places.

We also equip teachers and families with high-quality learning experiences they can confidently carry back into the classroom and the home.

We offer opportunities to engage with heritage across all levels of formal learning including Early Years Foundation Stage, Key Stages 1, 2, 3 & 4, post-16 and post-18.

We also support home education learning.

There is currently a very high demand for our services.

We recommend booking a term in advance for Heritage Workshops and Loans.

We cannot guarantee your preferred dates if booked in the current term.
