The AIM is located just on the edge of town and visitors are welcome to look around the old hospital on their own but if you would like to have a look inside the museum and have a guided tour from locals you can either drop into the Visitors Centre or call the numbers posted on the outside of the museum. The guided tours are run by a group of dedicated volunteers and we apologise if they are not available but every effort is made to accommodate visitors.
