What visitors say
On the website, it advises that the address postcode does not take you to the building. The postcode they say to use is WR5 1DD. Free entry. General café on site. The building, set within the vast grounds of Royal Worcester Hospital, does not have external signage, so I drove past it and around. I parked up and used Google maps to direct us on foot. Parking is Pay as You Park. I telephoned the museum a few days before, checking on Easter holiday opening. The staff member was extremely friendly and enthusiastic about our proposed desire to visit. And offered a volunteer to give us a tour. I declined, and due to the small museum area, I'm pleased I did. The museum offered the minimal amount of engaging exhibit display cabinets to qualify as a museum. It is a short corridor leading to a fire exit, credit for a good use of space. Scan the QR at the entrance to access audio tour. It is narrated by a child (maybe 12 years old), reading a difficult script and medical words. This might engage other children. Though for me, and my adult son, the poor punctuation and struggling flow was slightly annoying. Do visit, if you are at the hospital, but do not exclusively make this a day out.

Really good museum if you like medical things, free to enter, activity sheet for kids that was really good. Lots of great displays, only thing that could be improved on is size, it was so good we just wished it had been bigger.

Small but well stocked with relevant historical medical equipment. Good for an hour. Parking is challenging
