Summer Access Day

About this event

Join us at the British Motor Museum on Access Day to enjoy our fantastic collection on a day dedicated to maximising accessibility for all! Access Day offers a whole host of exciting accessible activities like specially adapted crafts, as well as relaxed hours, and a quiet room. These are in addition to our existing initiatives such as SEND & sensory bags and Touch & Access Tours, which ensure that our spaces are accessible and inclusive at all times This is just one of the ways we aim to create the best Museum experience for those with additional needs, along with continued reviews, upgrades and changes to the Museum to make it as welcoming as possible, regardless of visitors’ requirements. All activities are free with general admission. Come along and join the Learning Team on one of our specially adapted Touch and Access Tours. These sensory guided tours bring the collection to life, allowing visitors to get up close to a number of the cars in the Museum. Sign up for a Touch and Access Tour at the Family Activity Station and join your tour from the designated meeting point by the Museum Pay Desk. On Access Day, we will be enabling those who need a quieter environment to enjoy our wonderful car collection with ‘Relaxed Hours’. Audio-visuals and hand dryers will be switched off (paper towels will be provided), and the lighting will be lowered. For anyone who needs a bit of time out, there will be a quiet room available throughout the day in the Museum’s Learning Hub.
