Last week, this group from Bury College had their final trip to Liverpool.
During the trip, they had lunch in the free picnic area at the @MuseumLiverpool, which is an awesome space, and used @merseyrail, which was a totally different experience for them.

It's #ThrowbackThursday and we're looking back at our trip to #Preston last week.
This lovely group had a great time on our first trip.

This week, one of our groups visited #Liverpool.
For many, it was their first time on a train and there was some nervousness. However, the @northernassist staff at #Preston station were very friendly and put our travellers at ease.

Our group enjoyed a trip to #Bolton this week.
The @BoltonLMS museum and aquarium were perfect for the group, as we had a few young children join us. The museum currently has a fantastic robot exhibition, which we would recommend visiting.
