Booking details

Viisits to the Aeropark for groups of all types can be arranged and the content and duration are agreed based on the group's own requirements.
The visits are conducted by AVA members who are all volunteers and have a wide range of aviation experience and knowledge and depending upon the requirements and obejective of the group's visit we will try to match the volunteers to meet the groups requirements.

For visits including children we provide work books which contain activities which are done whilst on site at the Aeropark and can then be used after the visit on any follow up work which is done based on the visit. A copy of these work books can be provided at the booking time along with our generic risk assesment.
It is recomended that the visit organiser visits the Aeropark prior to the group's visit in order to complete their own specific risk assesment.

Visits can be arranged by emailing the visit coordinator via groupvisit@eastmidlandsaeropark.org or by calling Ken Williams on 07917021990.
All school groups are given special treatment and a full guided tour by AVA volunteers, there is a charge of £2 per supervising adult and £1 per child.
There is a minimum charge of £20 per group in order to cover our costs, and we ask that this minimum charge is paid prior to the visit and the balance paid during the visit.
From 1st May 2012 these charges will change to £3 per Supervising Adult and £1.50 per child subject to minimum charge of £25
