Museums take inclusiveness and accessibility as their mission,and their collections with rich cultural and artistic attributes as their foundation,which have great therapeutic potential for the elderly.Museums in the UK have developed diversified,long-lasting and scientific therapy programs from the perspective of the health and other practical needs of the elderly through various sources,and have now formed a relatively mature therapy mechanism.By combing the cases,this paper summarizes the advantages of the therapy service for seniors of British museums,and introduces useful experience for the elderly therapeutic work of Chinese museums.
