This is a FREE, Drop-in event. If you're interested in a CPD session then please email us at [email protected] to arrange a time.🌟 Step into a unique, interactive sensory exhibition designed to be accessible for all! Whether you’re a baby, toddler, someone with special educational needs (SEND) or sensory processing differences, or simply curious about sensory experiences, this space is all about sharing and recording history through touch, sound, light, and movement.
✨ Glowing lights & UV sensory exploration
🎶 Interactive sensory stations
🌿 Textures to touch, feel & discover
🖐 Hands-on experiences designed for all ages
🤟 Makaton signing & inclusive communication elements woven throughout
It’s also a great space for professionals working in early years, SEND, social care, health, education, and the arts— a chance to experience how sensory heritage can help us understand different ways of engaging with the world and explore how lived experience can be understood and recorded with people who communicate through sensory expression rather than words.
The exhibition is also visiting:
🗓️ 27th - 29th Marchl | Luton Central Library
🗓️ 8th-11th April | Flitwick Library
Funded by Lottery Heritage and supported by Heritage Horizons at the University of Bedfordshire. Created and curated by Collar & Cuffs Co with The Chiltern School.
People with Profound & Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD) are missing from our collective social history, this project is exploring and evaluating ways to change that.
