Guided Walk: Pioneers of Science & Medicine Willesden Jewish Cemetery

 

To coincide with British Science Week run by the British Science Association, and Healthcare Science Week, organised by the NHS, we are running our fascinating Pioneers of Medicine and Science Walk.

Discover the ground breaking scientists, renowned doctors and great industrialists buried at Willesden Jewish Cemetery.

Learn about the fascinating lives of talented men and women who made invaluable contributions to biology, chemistry, psychology, nutrition, mechanics, agriculture, engineering and medicine, as well as promotion and dissemination of scientific knowledge around the world.

To find out more, book your tickets for a guided walk below.

Maximum of 25 participants per guided walk.

Walks will start at the Heritage Centre and last roughly 75 minutes. Please arrive 15 mins before the start of the walk to explore the Centre and watch a short introductory film.

A limited amount of parking is available on site.

Wheelchairs can be provided upon request.

No dogs, with the exception of guide dogs.

Our guided walks are £10 to join, with concessions for Seniors and Students of £8. Charging for Guided Walks allow us to keep doing what we do - sustaining the new House of Life visitor experience, and making the cemetery’s heritage and stories accessible to people from all backgrounds.
