Sleepover Scout ‘Camp’ at the Museum

The Maritime Museum is delighted to announce the launch of its new ‘Sleepover’ programme for cubs, scouts, brownies and guides; a new and very special opportunity for groups to spend a ‘night at the museum’ as part of a unique and unforgettable learning experience. 

Each sleepover includes:

• Hands-on activities led by members of the education team, designed to support badge work
• Racing radio controlled sailboats on our large boat pool
• A magical torch-lit tour of the ‘museum at night’
• Animated film or cartoons in our 100 seat cinema
• A ‘midnight feast’ of hot chocolate and biscuits
• An opportunity to sleep in the museum galleries
• A trained member of the education team on-call and on-site throughout the night
• Breakfast next morning, with the option of an additional hands-on activity before you leave
• Full booking support and risk assessment information
