The Government is undertaking a review of museums to explore the ways in which museums can better increase participation from all members of society. The review will examine the ways in which museums can contribute to the health and wellbeing of local populations.
The Government has made clear that free admission to museums will not be changed and is not part of the review. Comments, feedback and submissions are sought from people who use or work with museums, as well as from museums themselves. The deadline for submissions is 31 October 2016.
