NPL opens their doors to the public once every 2 years. It is well worth going. Tickets are only 3.00 each, and that money is donated to a cancer charity. More details at
http://www.npl.co.uk/open-house/ To make the most of it, you need to 1) Arrive early (14:00) 2) Leave when they close (20:00) 3) Walk around the many labs. Even 6 hours is not enough time to visit everything. I think you need to be reasonably fit, since it is not a place where you sit down in a chair and listen to lectures all day. I think NPL do a really good job, as they manage to put on something that is interesting to both children and professional scientists. Lots of schools have trips there for the day.
