Children aged five to 11 years old can enjoy finding out more about Norwich Cathedral with the help of our free Explorer Backpacks.

The bags are packed full of items to help children engage with the Cathedral, including a set of binoculars, a torch, magnifying glass, compass, tape measure and mirror, plus a pencil to help them complete a special trail.

The backpacks are free to borrow and can be collected from the Cathedral’s Welcomers. At the end of your visit they should be returned to the Cathedral Shop, where young explorers who have completed their quest will receive a free gift.

We look forward to welcoming you and your little ones to explore the Cathedral!

Please be aware we have a limited stock of Explorer Backpacks and so are unable to offer them on particularly busy days such as school visits and family fun days.
