Overall Rating
Excellent
Brilliant, really cheap trip if you have bus passes for northern train line and they were also accepted on the Leeds buses. Friendly staff in the museum who offered a lot of help, family friendly environment to visit and they welcome all groups and are really accommodating. Really interesting with all the old medical equipment and it was sensory friendly with head phones and things to smell, see and touch. Tickets for the museum were £11.99 but as we were a group from a learning center we emailed groups@thackraymuseum.org and we got the tickets for £6.95
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
There was a lift, long corridors and aisles - some darker areas could be harder for visually impaired.
Parking & Transport

Leeds train station and took the 16 bus which was a 5/10 minute walk from the station and it dropped us right outside the museum. The buses had tv screens with the destinations on which helped.
