National Mining Museum Scotland Tour

The Festive season can be a fun time but it can also be challenging for many people. There are often a lot of commitments, expenses and social gatherings. VOCAL is offering a range of free activities and events to help carers in Midlothian over the Festive period and into the New Year

Midlothian carers have the opportunity to visit the National Mining Museum Scotland and take a tour of one of the best preserved Victorian Collieries in Europe.   The four-acre Midlothian site effectively captures the developments in mining over generations and highlights include the most powerful steam winding engine in Scotland; the most extensive preserved suite of Lancashire Boilers in the UK, and the only extant timber Dredger in Europe.

Tickets are available for a family of four or for two people.

Please note tickets are limited so priority will be given to those carers who have not benefited from VOCAL Wee Breaks previously.
