All groups must pre-book their visit to the Wilberforce House Museum.
Self-directed visits do not feature any delivered element by members of our on-site team but are the perfect way for your group to visit our museum linked to your chosen theme or topic.
Want to stay on site for lunch?
There is a small charge of £1 per person for the use of our on-site Education Room. (Group leaders and support staff are free).
Your group will be invoiced for this after your visit.
You can make use of our outdoor covered picnic area near the main entrance to the Streetlife Museum (next door to Wilberforce House Museum - accessed through the gardens at the rear of the museum) or picnic in the Wilberforce House Garden for free.
Key information
- The Wilberforce House Museum opens at 10am (Monday to Saturday) and 11am on Sundays - we are unable to allow entry into the building before this time
- We have allocated your visit as a full-day visit but you can state at the time of booking what time you estimate you will be arriving and departing
- Last entry into the building is 4pm (Monday to Saturday) and 3.30pm on Sunday
- To ensure your group's enjoyment and that of other visitors, we ask that large groups stagger their entry into the building to help with general visitor flow - a maximum of 70 group members at a time
- Our Education Room can accommodate a maximum of 35 group members plus group leaders/support staff. Large groups will be asked to stagger their lunches
