Lifetime Membership

Become a Lifetime Member

Create a lifetime of memories at the Weald & Downland Living Museum.

• A one off membership fee
• Free standard daytime admission to the Museum
• No need to pre-book your admission ticket
• 10% discount in the café and shop
• 10% discount on admission tickets for guests when visiting with you
• Selected discounts on Museum ticketed events and courses
• Priority access to information on ticketed events
• Invitations to Museum special events
• Membership publications
• A personalised Christmas card with an update from the Museum Director
