Audio described shows can help people who are blind or partially sighted. During an audio described performance, the action of the play is described through a headset by trained people so that you can follow what is happening at the same time as the rest of the audience. This live verbal commentary doesn’t go over what is being said onstage – it’s kept to an essential minimum so that you get what you need when you need it.

Relaxed cinema screenings are subtly-adapted screenings which create an environment that is welcoming for people with a range of conditions such as autism, learning disabilities and cognitive disorders. They have sound levels turned down, the lights left on at a low level and there are no trailers at the beginning of the film. Film-goers are free to bring their own food and drinks to the cinema, are able to make noise and to sit where they feel most comfortable.
