About
Experience Colchester Castle in a calmer, more relaxed atmosphere during this special First Thursdays session. Designed for visitors with autism and other sensory sensitivities, sounds and visual displays are reduced to help minimise sensory stimulation. A quiet space with sensory toys is available in the Chapel, while free ear defenders, visual guides and twiddlemuffs can be borrowed from reception. Taking place from 3pm to 5pm, the session is suitable for ages 4+ and is included with Castle admission, providing a more comfortable way to explore the museum.
