One of my fav #museums, the #WellcomeCollection is currently having an #exhibition on #Milk, & on Sept 2nd, will have a 'Relaxed Opening' (more even lighting, less lighting, less sounds, etc.)

They will also provide #SensoryOverload aids such as ear defenders, tinted glasses/visors, etc.

Specific *detailed* info is here:

It's an amazing place! There are permanent exhibits, especially related to medical history - some of which is, um, 😬 but fascinating. They have a great library. I've seen some of their temporary exhibitions as well - & they have a quite dangerously attractive gift shop. 😄

If you ever get a chance to go, DO! They offer guided tours, self-guided audio tours, braille on at least some of the displays, large print labels (or can borrow a magnifying glass), TTS readers, and more.
