Gift Aid

The Hollycombe Working Steam Museum is a Registered Charity (No.1061693) and so we can claim Gift Aid on your entry. By agreeing to Gift Aid your entry when buying your ticket, we can claim an extra 25% of the value of your tickets from the government. There is no extra cost to you – all you have to be is a UK taxpayer. This will greatly assist us in maintaining the museum for you and future generations to enjoy. Your Gift Aid donation will be used to carry on the work of the museum to keep these great steam-powered exhibits alive.

FREE RETURN ENTRY

All visitors, whether they Gift Aid their admission or not, can revisit the museum as many times as they like free of any extra charge during a calendar year from date of purchase.

Tickets purchased at normal admission prices allow free return entry for one year, but only for the people admitted on the original ticket. The ticket must be shown and the person who made the purchase must be present. Tickets are not transferable and identity will be checked on applying for readmission.

These events are excluded where full admission prices apply to all visitors:

The Fairground Weekend in July, and the two Halloween Fairground at Night evenings (as are the special Christmas events which must be pre-booked).
