An inviting space with sofas and plants

Quiet Space

Duration: Open daily

We have created a Quiet Space, next to the exhibition, where you can take the time to pause. 

There will be comfy seating and a calm environment for you to rest your body, take a deep breath and slow down for a little while.

There will be resources on local support and community groups, as well as information on spaces and activities for parents and carers in the area.
