Thanks to funds from Rectory Homes and the Heart of Bucks charity, visitors with specific access needs have new ways of exploring the museum.
For visually impaired visitors, an iPad can be booked out to magnify the artefacts in the galleries for a close-up look.
Easy read guides are available as you go around the galleries. Text reader pens can be used with the guides which read out the line of text you have just scanned. You run the device over the text you wish you listen to. Ask to sign out the pens at our front desk. There is also one that translates into different languages, including European languages, Russian, Chinese and Arabic.
If mobility is an issue, we now have a range of walking and sitting aids, such as seated strollers.

A brand new hearing ‘T’-loop is available for those with hearing impairment. Ask at reception, switch to the t-loop setting on your hearing aid and carry the portable loop around with you.
