Our sensory rooms are available from 10.00am to 4.00pm Monday to Friday, for a one hour slot. We have around 250 users per month; some have been attending for up to 15 years too! We asked our users what makes the Sensurround experience special to them.
Trevor Rimmer attends weekly and has done so for a couple of years now. When we asked his carer what he liked most about the rooms she said, “He loves to relax. Sensurround gives him the chance to unwind and chill out without being disturbed.” Trevor listens to classical music during his relaxing sensory sessions.
“Trevor loves the range of tactile equipment and especially the waterbed.”
