Yesterday it was the first time I visited the lock-up in Birmingham as we are invited to help Wizz Air open day which myself and my colleague thoroughly enjoyed are experienced and being able to speak to some of the volunteers that were there who are ex serving officers when it was an operational lock-up some current officers but also see some of the real history behind this building. I can't wait to see the upcoming plans to this building and what they wanting to do with their support from the local police and moving some of their items from their old museum to the current location. 

If you're looking for something to do with your children in the holidays or weekends I can highly recommend visiting this location as you will not be disappointed watch out on their website for details as I heard people have been waiting a long time to visit this location and when they did they weren't disappointed.

I look forward to revisiting the lock-up with other colleagues but also working with them in the future. Well done guys keep up the great work

£5.00 adult, £3.50 child. It is a really good day out for the family, it is very informative and provides insight into both modern and historic policing. There are informative booths scattered around the lock up where you can find out different stuff about current and past interest of the police. Really worthy of a visit if you can secure the tickets. Need to pre book as the events sell out.

Great few hours with the kids here. Great to learn about the history of the building, policing in the West mids and crimes and punishments of some of it's visitors. The staff and officers were lovely, very kind and knowledgeable. The armed response guys out the front also handle the 100 questions our excited 5yr old asked. Great fun and highly recommended!

Brilliant place to take the children. The volunteers were really passionate about the history of WM Police. The quiz for the children was really good and they gave the children a little gift bag as they left.
