Attractions

Whether you’re looking for an autism friendly attraction, somewhere you can easily navigate in your wheelchair or something suitable for the whole family, there are a host of attractions around the UK.

Britain is incredibly diverse, so there is plenty of scope for adventures, whatever your needs. Every region has its own activities, attractions and events, so everyone can take part and make memories to last a life time.

Autism friendly attractions

Many of Britain’s attractions are autism friendly, with a host of facilities to make sure that everyone has a good time, no matter what their needs. You’ll find places with specialised sessions and opening times for any visitors with autism and other sensory conditions, as well as quiet spaces and interactive exhibitions that allow for touch. These types of attractions are also great for those with hearing loss or visual impairments and you’ll find many of them adapt the lighting and feature good contrasts between floors, doors and windows to help you more easily make your way around.

As more and more awareness is made around hidden disabilities, those too are becoming increasingly better catered for in Britain’s attractions. You’ll find options with Changing Places facilities, specialised queuing systems and other helpful systems in place to make your trip stress free.

Ride the waves or climb a mountain…

As we’re an island, you’ll find plenty of chances to get out on the waves – and all over the UK there are organisations offering disabled friendly sessions, suitable for those using wheelchairs, with sensory conditions and mental health issues.
