Why not visit a museum, art gallery, stately home or historic castle?
Many of the thousands of museums, galleries and heritage sites across the UK have services to make a visit more enjoyable for blind and partially sighted visitors. You can find further information on these on our Museums and galleries venue information page.

'Shifting Perspectives'
Your guide to opening up museums and galleries for blind and partially sighted people.
This CultureLink publication identifies approaches to key aspects of service delivery which can help improve access to museums and galleries venues, collections and archives.
'Barriers can be intellectual as well as physical.' These imperceptible barriers, often placed in the way of blind and partially sighted people by others, are far more complex and discriminatory than we first thought. But with planning, insight and understanding, they can be developed.
However it is paramount that they can be addressed in a strategic, manageable and inclusive manner. We envisage our new publication 'Shifting Perspectives' highlights more creative thinking and inclusive approaches for all and offers a unique perspective from blind and partially sighted people.
'Shifting Perspectives' second edition is now available to buy through the RNIB helpline on 0303 123 9999.
