Did you know we are a charity? Gift Aid makes a huge difference to us and helps to conserve and grow. A small donation with your entrance ticket can go a long way.

Gift Aid allows UK charities to claim back the basic rate already paid on donations by the donor. For every £1 you spend on admission, we can claim back 25p from the Government on your behalf.
