We are hosting two Relaxed Sessions for anyone who would like to explore Making a rukus! in a calm and comfortable environment, including people with autism and other neurodiverse needs, as well as their siblings, families and carers. These will be held on Friday 25 October from 10.00-11.30 and Saturday 02 November from 18.30-20.00.
To ensure that Making a rukus! is as welcoming and calm as possible, we:
- Limit the number of visitors in the session
- Turn off or lower the volume of audio-visual elements in the space
- Provide a visual story to help you plan your visit
- Provide Access Packs – available at Making a rukus! entrance. These contain noise cancelling headphones, magnifying glass sheet for reading any printed text, a large print guide and a stress ball
- Run regular disability awareness sessions with our staff
- Provide a safe/calm space to help assist visitors who may be overwhelmed due to the new environment
For any questions about these sessions, please contact visitor@somersethouse.org.uk. Lines are open between 09.00-18.00 between Monday and Friday, and from 10.00-18.00 on Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays.
Please be aware that we do not offer refunds or exchanges as per our terms and conditions of sale.
We want our events to be as accessible as possible, therefore this exhibition is Pay What You Can. We are asking visitors who are able to do so to consider making a donation to support the work of Somerset House.
