This guide is designed to offer museums and heritage organisations everything needed to plan a successful Away Day.
Everything in the guide is relevant to any museum, whatever their size or status. If something is likely to be not as affordable for say, a small voluntary-run museum rather than a larger one with paid staff, then whenever possible, alternative
solutions are offered. Throughout, “staff” or “staffing” are used to denote paid staff, volunteers or a combination of both.
