Dust off your i-go card and try a day out with one of our accessible community venues. 

For example, Newhaven Fort opens on Monday 12 February for the season. They offer carers entry for only £2 and you can ask for a special i-go map which highlights the exhibition rooms that are particularly noisy, dark or have flashing lights.
