The museum is open all year round apart from bank holidays. We are open Monday to Friday, 10am – 4pm and entry is FREE. The curator is happy to open the museum in the evening and at weekends for pre-arranged groups, please contact us for more information.

 

How to get here

 

The Museum is located in the Charles Hastings Education Centre at the Worcestershire Royal Hospital on Newtown Road. The Museum itself is situated on the ground floor of the Centre and is fully accessible to wheelchair users. There is disabled parking at the front and to the rear of the building in which the Museum is housed and access is via a ramp from the front. The Museum and Lecture Theatre are both fitted with induction loops and we have written scripts for our audio activities.

 

By bus

 

The W2 and W3 park and ride bus services run between the hospital site, the city centre and the park and ride site, and services 31 and 44 also run between the centre and the hospital.

By car

 

All visitors to the Museum can access free parking onsite. If you are part of a group visit or a smaller party, our Curator is happy to arrange this for you.

 

By train

 

The nearest train stations are Worcester Foregate Street and Worcester Shrub Hill. It is possible to catch a bus to the hospital site from nearby either of these stations, and there is a taxi rank outside both as well.
