About Second World War Satchels
Pick up one of our summer activity satchels and delve deeper into the history of the Second World War.
Separate satchels are available for adult and family visitors.
Families can use their satchel to explore what it was like for young people to join the RAF during the Second World War. Together you will learn to march, drill and navigate.
Adults can become part of the Special Operations Executive or SOE, a secret organisation of agents who spied and sabotaged in occupied Europe. Using our puzzle satchel, discover some of the skills the agents learned in Scotland before being dropped behind enemy lines…
The satchels are free to borrow and can be collected from the Concorde Hangar.
