🏛️ Helping make museums more accessible!

This week, Wi******er Go LD members met with Clare to share their ideas for an Easy Read guide for the Gurkha Museum, alongside suggestions for making museum visits more welcoming and accessible.

From large photographs , clear wording and colourful maps to quiet spaces, sensory tours and affordable entry, members offered thoughtful feedback based on their own experiences.

And one suggestion proved particularly popular: adult-sized dressing-up outfits! 😊

Our members have a wealth of experience and expertise to share. We’re looking forward to getting more involved as the project develops and helping shape how the Gurkha story is told.

Thank you to Clare for listening and involving our members.

🐈Cat Café and Romsey Abbey! ⛪

Today we visited the Paws For Thought Cat Cafe🐱 The members settled in for coffee ☕, cake 🍰, and plenty of cuddles with the resident cats, who were more than happy to hop up on the tables and say hello. A few of our furry friends even napped 💤through the whole visit, clearly unbothered by all the excitement!

We then had a fascinating guided tour of the stunning Romsey Abbey, taking in centuries of history and beautiful architecture. 🏛️

Thank you 🙏 to ALL our wonderful volunteers who have supported us on the trips - none of this would be possible without you!

🏏A brilliant day at Lord’s! 🏏

What an experience for our members as we headed to the Home of Cricket for the Festival of Disability Cricket at Lord’s! 🏏

We travelled to London by train and Underground, putting our life skills into practice along the way - checking train times, reading maps, navigating the Underground and finding our way around London. 🚆🗺️

Once at Lord’s, we took part in a range of activities around the stadium and had the chance to see the many different ways cricket can be adapted to make the sport accessible and inclusive.

We then ended the day watching England Men’s Mixed Disability team take on India in the final game of their series. 🏏🇮🇳

It was fantastic for our members to see disability cricket being showcased from grassroots and accessible formats through to international level, while experiencing a new sport for themselves.

A massive thank you to St Cross Symondians CC , Hampshire Cricket Board and Lord's Cricket Ground for giving our members this fantastic opportunity. It was a brilliant day full of new experiences, independence, confidence and plenty of cricket! ❤️🏏
