From early years to adult learning, bring your group to explore the national museum of democracy to learn about, be inspired by, and get involved in ideas worth fighting for.
We are here to help you plan a visit to the museum for your early years, school, college, university, community, adult learning, or social group.
Book a self-guided group visit and receive a welcome upon arrival with details of the latest exhibitions and self-led activities to get the most out of your visit. You can also take a break from exploring and reserve a lunch space for your group.
Booking is required for groups of over six people to guarantee entry.

Our Learning Team is currently working on a project that will see the relaunch of PHM’s Learning Programme. New onsite and online experiences, workshops and outreach work will be part of the result and we’ll be sharing updates as the project progresses.
We are looking at and reviewing every element of our learning programmes working with partners and audiences to ensure that we continue to empower people with an understanding of how change can be achieved through individual, social and political activity. If you work with early years, school, college, university, community or adult learning groups and you’d like to get involved please email learning@phm.org.uk
Whilst this project is being developed schools and community groups will be able to continue to visit PHM on a bookable self-guided group visit.
The museum is Family Friendly throughout, with hands-on activities in every gallery and throughout the building for all visitors to enjoy. A range of online resources are available for anyone to access from anywhere.
