• Cancellations of any parties will incur the following charges: Within 14 days of visit – 100% of cost of party.

Conduct and Responsibilities

• You are responsible for the supervision and conduct of children in your group at all times. It is important that children are never left unattended or allowed to wander around the building alone. Birmingham Museums are not responsible for supervision of your party.
• Please ensure there are enough adults to supervise the children. We require a ratio of at least one adult for every 10 children. Failure to bring sufficient and appropriate adult assistance may result in your admission to the museum being refused. In this instance, you will still be liable for the full cost of your party.
• You know your children best and if you feel that you need to bring more adults than the above ratios suggest, please do so.
• Severely disruptive behaviour will lead to the group being asked to leave Thinktank and no refunds will be made on any part of the visit.
• You will be liable for any damage caused by the actions of any member within your group.
