April 2023: Thank you for our lovely little visit today. Our guide was amazing in every way. Tailored our tour to keep our daughter content and happy and we all really enjoyed our time with you. All the volunteers took time to talk to us and interact with us and our daughter. There was lots of buttons to press that all worked something different a model or a story. And she enjoyed the dressing up and colouring in. Thank you everyone involved 🙂
