Our Vibrant Sensory Rooms in Manchester for Children and Adults

multisensory room redbank house with purple lighting and fish projection screen

Here at Redbank House, part of Disabled Living, we have two sensory rooms. They’re very exciting as colours flash through the fibre-optic strands along the floor, streams of blue and green simultaneously twinkle through the bubble tubes on either side of the room. The disco ball sparkles as our classical chill out music plays in the background.

Information about our sensory rooms in Manchester

Playing in the mirrors creating their very own personal party space with pop music or lying on the water beds or our users can rest and dream away to the sounds of classical music! This experience is all part of a therapy designed for children and adults with disabilities and is available at Redbank House. Groups can enjoy and explore their environment together as well as individual sessions. So the private environment helps them to develop their own sensory needs.

Benefits of a multi-sensory environment

All children and adults with disabilities can benefit from using a sensory room. These environments have proven to be extremely valuable to those with disabilities.
