We therefore depend heavily upon donations to carry out our work. \nThe admission price of £7 and Tour + Admission price of £11 includes a voluntary donation\, and if you are a UK taxpayer you can enable us to claim the tax back on the whole amount paid (£7 or £11) as part of the Gift Aid scheme. This is worth an extra 25p for every £1 paid\, which means that your donation will provide even more support for our vital preservation work. \nWe are enormously grateful for every donation received\, regardless of value. Each person who supports the Trust becomes part of our unique history and\, more importantly\, our future. \nIf you feel you can support us in this way please complete the Gift Aid Declaration form at the Welcome Desk on your arrival. Payment of the additional £1 donation is entirely voluntary. \n\nIs Victoria Baths accessible?\n\nThere is an access ramp at the main entrance and an accessible toilet and baby change facilities. The ground floor is completely accessible\, including the Café and Gift Shop. Currently\, we do not have 1st-floor lift access. If you need help during your visit\, please speak to the staff or a volunteer\, who all wear name badges. Blue Badge holders can park directly in front of the building. \n\nAre children welcome at this event?\n\nFor the SpringFest daytime event yes! Tickets for under 18s are free of charge. There is a baby changing table situated next to the accessible toilet\, and a children’s activity area. \nFor ‘Victoria Baths Presents… an evening with special guests She Drew The Gun\, the entry is 18+ only. \n\nCan I take photographs at the event?\n\nPhotography and filming for personal use are permitted anywhere inside the building unless otherwise stated. Photos taken inside may not be sold or used for commercial gain.
