Calm Sensory Sessions

CALMER DAYS

Calm Sensory Sessions have been designed for anyone who benefits from visiting at a time when there is a calmer background sensory environment – particularly neurodivergent people of all ages.

Stay Up to date

Sessions run throughout the year on a mix of weekdays (during school holidays) and weekends, with both morning and afternoon options to suit different schedules.

FAQ

You are welcome to bring food and drink with you - please be respectful of your surroundings and other visitors, and please dispose of rubbish correctly.

Whilst we do not allow food and drink in inside spaces, there is seating available in the dockyard and in Brunel Square (just outside the main entrance to Bristol Dockyards). The Riggers’ Yard can be reserved for school and youth groups – other groups may request use of this space on a case-by-case basis. Our on-site restaurant The Board Walk is open from 8:30am, Tuesdays to Sundays.
