A Cultural Journey of the Churchill War Rooms for Blind and Partially Sighted People

Hidden beneath the streets of Westminster lies The Churchill War Rooms, the secret headquarters where the course of the Second World War was determined.

So do join RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey as he goes on a tour of the Churchill War Rooms with Oliver Carter-Wakefield, Curator of the CWR, walking through many of the secret underground rooms, finding out what it was like for the men and women who worked there alongside Churchill during World War II, looking into the man behind the icon as well as stepping inside the places where Winston Churchill made some of his BBC Radio broadcast addresses to the nation.

Throughout the tour you will also hear clips from the recorded audio described guide to the Churchill War Rooms for blind and partially sighted people which is available from the Audio Desk in the entrance to the CWR.
