Coventry's Blitz Museum is to reopen later for the first time since the pandemic forced it to close.

To celebrate the occasion the museum, located in the ruins of Coventry Cathedral, is urging visitors to come to the launch in 40s style dress.

A special cream tea event will also take place so volunteers can thank them for their loyalty, organisers said.

After being closed for two years, the museum opens at 10:00 BST and then on weekdays.
