SEN relaxed sessions Christmas
At Attingham, the Mansion gets decorated for the festive period and to make sure everyone gets to experience the magic, there are quiet opening times, designed for any visitors on the Autism Spectrum or who have sensory sensitivity special needs.
- Booking essential
- Free event (admission applies)
These sessions will be quieter and more relaxed, especially designed for visitors on the Autism Spectrum or who have sensory processing difficulties and may find visiting during regular opening hours overwhelming. We ask visitors to please book onto these sessions in advance.
During these relaxed opening times we will have the following resources available to help visitors with their visit:
• Visual Story • Sensory maps • A small handling collection • Sensory bags from visitor reception • Ear Defenders from visitor reception
We understand that your day can change, and you may not be able to make it. If this is the case, please could you let us know by ringing the phoneline on 01743708170
