Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

Help us organize our website content.

In the foreground, two men, one of whom holds an imitation cheque from the Bank of England made out to "HIV/AIDS services 0 pounds, 0 pence only" and signed "V. Bottomley. H. M. Government", the other wearing a t-shirt with the slogan "ACT-UP". Above, two demonstrations: left, before the North West Regional Health Authority HQ in Manchester, with demonstrators holding placards spelling out the name of the Rt. Hon. Virginia Bottomley (the Secretary of State for Health 1992-1995); right, demonstrators holding placards spelling out "I'm an evil Tory bigot" (an anagram of "Virginia Bottomley"). Centre, a newspaper cutting contains heading: 'Ginny in anagram hell'. Top, logo of H.M. Government
