About your mentor
Culture Coventry
Discover Coventry's museums in creative ways.
Culture Coventry Trust is home to three of Coventry's museums: Coventry Transport Museum, home to the world’s largest collection of British road transport, including the two fastest cars in the world. The award-winning Herbert Art Gallery & Museum, which celebrates the city’s culture, history and arts. The Lunt Roman Fort, a fully excavated and partially reconstructed turf and timber fort, including the only gyrus in the Roman Empire. Between them, these attractions proudly tell stories of Coventry’s unique history to over 800,000 visitors per year from around the world. CV Life is ever evolving and continuously looking for new ways to encourage people to be active and engaged in ways that suit them, their interests and needs.
How we will support your child
This event requires parents to remain with their children at all times. Our Learning and Engagement Team will lead activities, tailored to your child's need. The group size is being kept purposely low, so that we can offer up more directed support for you and your child. We will include a lot of tactile, hands-on opportunities for your child to be involved in, to explore the museum and take part in practical activities, centred around physical mobility needs, helping your child to connect with the museum and its collection in a meaningful and memory making way.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience is an educational activity and the 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
