Staying active in later life is really important. Exercise can help you lower the risk of developing a variety of health conditions. No matter your age or health condition, there's plenty of ways to add more physical movement to your life.
If possible, you should do exercises that improves your strength, balance and flexibility. Carrying heavy shopping is suitable because it strengthens muscles.

Join us for a guided tour with a difference! Discover the unexpected and intriguing stories behind the bags on display in our featured exhibition Carried Away: Bags Unpacked.

The bags themselves are a visual feast, but we've dug deeper and fallen down rabbit-holes to bring you the bigger picture of the life and times of these popular accessories. We guarantee that the De-tour stories start with bags, but who knows where we may end up?

De-tours are thirsty work and so they will conclude with a Devonshire tea at our 1929 cafe.

Saturday and Sunday afternoons, 10 - 11 and 17 - 18 August. Bookings essential.
