Clarks Quiet In-Store Fitting
Shoe shopping can be overwhelming for little ones. If you’d like to visit us during a time with fewer crowds, noise and bright lights, then we offer Quiet Time appointments.
To book this contact Clarks Whiteley or call 01489 581716.
Cineworld
We run a specific Autism Friendly Session at 11am on the first Sunday of every month.
In these sessions, the lights go down to half, the sound is a little quieter and there are no adverts or trailers. Just the film itself.
We always have these available for booking much further in advance than our regular films.
