Thanks for the enquiry Bridget. Just for info, we naturally got no schools on the day of the bombings and have only had 2 out of 29 pre-booked schools since. Too soon for a clear picture of bookings for autumn.

We were quite in the thick of it, being located between King's Cross and Tavistock Square. This has led inevitably to quite a few cancellations of school visits, especially by groups who had planned to travel by public transport. Of course, we are still fully operational and welcoming groups. It would be really helpful to gauge how other venues, especially in London, are being affected. I guess many schools will not make their decision about whether to travel until the end of today or later this week, but it would be useful to know what you expect the effects to be, including after the holidays.
