Cineworld joins Dimensions to screen Autism Friendly
Films.
By Claire Henderson Saturday 24 November 2012
CINEWORLD will be showing their first Autism friendly
screening in partnership with Dimensions in December.
The screenings will be happening at Cineworld cinemas all
over the country including the Chester branch at the Greyhound Retail Park at
11am on the first Sunday of every month. People with sensory differences and
autism can attend with friends and siblings in an inclusive environment.
Autism Friendly screenings differ from regular screenings,
the lighting with be kept on low throughout the screening, the volume levels
will be reduced, there are no trailers or advertisements, customers can move
around the cinema and make noise and customers will be able to bring their own
food and drinks.
Kayley Worsley, the PR and Communications officer for
Dimensions said, “Currently Cineworld are showing the films across 21 cinemas-
December’s film will be their first one- but it is hoped this will increase in
future months.”
