Outreach projects

Our community outreach work is tailored to meet the needs and interests of specific target groups, to offer wider access to our objects and resources and through Schools Outreach.

Our community engagement work currently focuses on three key areas:

Activities and support for those with additional needs, including Museum Socials for those living with dementia to help you enjoy your visit to the National Museum of Scotland
Special projects working with different audiences at our museums and elsewhere across Scotland.

You can find out about our past projects here.

Additional support

We want everyone who comes to our museums to enjoy their time with us and make the most of their visit. Here's what we do to assist visitors with additional support needs.

Special projects

This vital support from funding and grants enables communities across Scotland to enjoy access to our collections, try fun activities and experience new learning opportunities.
