Creating Family Friendly Museums – Afternoon Cuppa Session

Tuesday 25 March 2025, 2-3.30pm

Join us for an informal virtual briefing and discussion session, featuring exciting updates from Kids in Museums. We will be sharing information about the updated Kids in Museums Manifesto and the Family Friendly Museum Award 2025.

The Kids in Museums Manifesto is a set of simple guidelines for museums, heritage sites and cultural organisations, which we update every two years. Between October and December 2024, we consulted hundreds of children, young people and families about what makes a heritage site a great place to visit. In this session, we will reveal the new version of the Manifesto, along with low and no cost changes you could make to enhance your museum’s family provision.

You will also hear more about the Kids in Museums Family Friendly Museum Award, which recognises the venues that are most welcoming, fun, and accessible for families.

In this session, you will:

find out about the updated version of the Kids in Museums Manifesto

gain an insight into what children, young people and families think about museums, heritage sites and cultural organisations

hear a range of practical ideas to inspire your family friendly provision

gain inspiration from a case study from the winner of the Best Small Museum at the Family Friendly Museum Award 2024 – National Civil War Centre, Newark. They will talk about their work with families and how their success in the 2024 Family Friendly Museum Award has impacted the museum.

informally share more about your current family offer and how you can put ideas from the session into practice.

Please bring your own cuppa and snacks!

Take a look at the full schedule.

This event will be delivered virtually over one and a half hours.
