Outreach
Community Days:
We're proud to have partnered with Hale Community Centre, local Home Link Workers, and Waverley Community Hoppa Bus service to run our special Community Days throughout the Surrey school holidays. Farnham Town Council has launched a fund that has been made available for organisations in Farnham who would like to run free school holiday activities for younger people of all ages, especially those that may be financially and socially disadvantaged, in the Farnham area.
Thanks to this generous funding we can facilitate a limited number of free family visit vouchers, distributed via Home Link Workers, to join family fun activities on our Community Days at the museum. Waverley Hoppa Bus will also be running a free bus service on these days from Hale Community Centre, Farnham Station, and the Museum. Check our What's On Page to see when the next Community Day is.
SEND Families and Groups:
Do you have a special event? Do you require speakers for your groups monthly history meeting?
Our goal is to establish a reputation as a SEND-friendly museum. Being 'SEND-friendly' means families and visitors can feel secure in the museum environment, allowing them to relax, enjoy their visit, and feel welcomed. Inclusion ensures that everyone can engage with the museum in their unique way, creating unforgettable experiences.
To help you prepare for you visit we have created a Social Story Board.. We invite your group to engage with us on-site, and we are eager to collaborate with organisations to develop tailored packages and unique learning opportunities specifically for our neurodivergent visitors. Please email schools@rural-life.org.uk and let us work together to help create wonderful memories for your group.
Outreach Talks:
Do you have a special event? Do you require speakers for your group's monthly history meeting?
Please note, all our outreach experiences are provided by a dedicated team of volunteers, so can be subject to change and to availability. We hope to expand and improve on this in the future. Interested in helping us out?
