We’re pleased to offer our Community Access Scheme to welcome local charitable groups for free. If you think your group may be eligible, please get in touch with our Engagement and Interpretation Officer at community@waterandsteam.org.uk. We would love to hear about your group, what you do, who you work with, and how we can facilitate your visit.
Over the years we have worked with a number of local groups including Speak Out, Hounslow Borough Children's Centres and Our Barn. We also enjoy welcoming special interest groups.

Speak Out in Hounslow
At Speak Out in Hounslow we support adults with learning disabilities and/or autism to Speak Out, be heard and listened to. For the last 6 years we have been running a popular arts and crafts group at the London Museum of Water & Steam. Due to its success, we have added other activities that include gardening, line dancing and sensory stories, that we deliver in the museum grounds. The LMWS has been vitally important to us, our members and their support during the COVID-19 pandemic. When we open up after the lockdowns we are always told that the activities we do are ' lifesavers' but we could not do it without the museum. Just being there makes us all feel happy and part of a welcoming community.
