History of the Group

The exhibits and stories displayed underground are suitable for all ages and we’re extremely proud that since opening up in 2016, the small team of parents, staff and friends of Downs Junior School have helped us lead a massive 300 guided tours (each with groups of 10 visitors) giving us a running total of some 3,000 visitors.  We are also really proud of the weekly school tours we can now offer.  During visits pupils not only experience the underground shelter, but they also attend an interactive workshop led by our very own WW2 veterans Barry & Alan who do an amazing job making our local history fun and inspiring.
