Places in the Midlands you need to book 

Some of the smaller places we care for in England will be opening with guided tours, so you’ll need to pre-book before your visit. These tours will be led by expert volunteers and will show the places in a new light. You may also need to book in advance at some other larger places temporarily, where visitor numbers need to be limited for practical reasons.

Restoring the Roundhouse 

In Birmingham we are working in partnership with the Canal and River Trust to restore the Roundhouse - a unique, curvy building which was first built as the city's stables and stores. Thanks to £2.5m funding from a National Lottery grant, work is due to be completed in autumn 2018.
