A relaxed screening particularly suitable for people living with dementia and memory challenges.
Our dementia friendly cinema screenings are designed for people and families living with dementia, however, they are open to the general public too. Please be aware that pastoral care is not provided at these screenings and that a friend, family member or carer must also be in attendance (free tickets available for carers).
To create a more relaxing and welcoming environment our screenings have:
• No adverts or trailers
• Freedom to move around as needed
• An optional light lunch ticket (includes soup + sandwich which must be pre-ordered) served at 1pm before the film, creating a chance for guests to familiarise themselves with the venue
Mary Poppins, 1964, Directed by Robert Stevenson
Cast: Julie Andrews, Dick van Dyke
Practically perfect in every way, Julie Andrews has been charming children as Mary Poppins for the past 60 years. Unable to maintain any childcare for longer than a few weeks, Mr & Mrs Banks are at their wits’ end, when suddenly a new sort of nanny appears. Mary Poppins turns daily chores into a game and takes the children, Jane and Michael, on magical outings around London, turning the Banks family entirely upside down.
