Screenings will take place in screen 1, our large art deco screen, newly restored to its art deco glory, to recreate the experience of going to the pictures. This is also easily accessible for wheelchair users.
We will maintain a low level of lighting throughout the screening and can adjust the volume on the film, to suit the needs of the audience. Visitors will be supported by Dementia Friends trained staff.
There will be an interval half way through the film for tea, coffee and biscuits to be served. This is included in the admission price of £4.
Please feel free to pass on details of this screening to anyone you know who may be interested in this type of event. For more information contact [email protected] or call 0151 928 1530
