Museum Loans - prices
We aim to offer schools value for money by keeping our costs to a minimum.
There are two main ways schools can use our service:
1. Subscribe to Hitchin and Letchworth Museums Education Service.
This is the most economical way to use the service. For a one off payment each year schools are entitled to:
- Up to 30 loans items per term
- Three free workshops (two of which have to be in the museums)
2.Pay-as-you-go – we can charge you for individual loan items and workshops.
