The South West Climate Change Centre is an interactive exhibition at the Heartlands visitor attraction and World Heritage Site, in Pool Cornwall.

The Centre is open to all from 9.30am to 4.30pm every weekday, except bank holidays, and is free to visit.

Visit BeFloodReady for virtual images of the exhibitions and more information.

The interactive exhibition looks at the causes of the climate emergency, the need for flood prevention and resilience, and why everyone needs to take action to lower their carbon footprint.

There are currently two rooms to explore:

  • Visit the BeFloodReady exhibition and discover how to make your home or business more resilient to flooding, and how to be prepared in the event of a flood. The interactive exhibition shows what a flood resilient home could look like, with a flood tank that shows what could happen if their homes were flooded.

  • Visit the Climate Change Exhibit and see the role of carbon in our lives. Find out about the changes we can all make at home and work, to slow the rate of climate change, and adapt to its impacts, and make a real difference. The interactive Tardis-style console and 4D film, shows what could happen if we don’t act fast enough.
