Experience life on the home front in World War II. Learn about the plans for invading Britain and how children played their part in the war effort. Discover how Sheffield’s steel industry made it a target for German bombing, the effects of raids on the city and how the emergency services coped with help from the civilian population. Come face to face with an incendiary bomb and handle a range of original artefacts from our WWII collection to discover how Britain played its part in defeating the Nazi menace. Using lights, sounds, smoke and smells, your class will be fully immersed with our bombed out house and don't forget to take cover in our air raid shelter.
