A Guide to The Space Centre Preston: Space 1

We have put together a series of films that give you a brief user guide to our multi-sensory rooms. Here is our introduction to Space 1.
Our original sensory room, all soft padded on 2 levels connected by a slide and stairs with specialist lighting and sound themes controlled by ipads, led lighting, ball pool, water bed, swing, sound box, bubble tubes, UV lighting, cameras,textures, projection and a fibre optic hut with musical steps.

Alright once I get my own place I swear I will do everything in my power to make my house look like this

[@Dana_808]

This is amazing. Wish i could replicate it for the home.

I'm affected by synaesthesia and I love what you have done in this video. My workaround is using DMX which is a protocol for controlling stage / club lights, so that's how I have kitted out my downstairs. PAR cans, moving heads, UV cannons, pin spots, pin spot arrays, mirror balls, lasers, (including cluster lasers) and a smoke machine. I control this from a desktop PC from a USB hardware interface which I bought in 2007 and is still working strong now in 2023

I have been having some speech and language therapy and communication sessions with Mrs Van Gran in the space centre which is a huge sensory room.

[@gavinbarnett4823]

Oh I would love to be in that room, especially the stair slide, not the actual slide though, I would just slide down the steps on my stomach

I'm assuming at an occupational therapy clinic. Maybe a hospital, but some children's clinic that does OT services. This specific room would be called a sensory gym. Most sensory gyms I've seen/been in are brightly colored though. But I'd assume there's usually a separate room within the OT wing of the clinic that is darker and with special lighting like this. Edit: later in the video they mention kids and adults using this! I love sensory gyms but I did think any OTs had sensory gyms for adults.

[@felicityblakesley9093]

Is this just for kids (like pretty much everything) or is this for autistic adults too? Would this place be good for autistic adults who are not comfortable around children?

[@pigeonscribble8768]

Agreed I would love this so much

[@space3013]

The Space Centre is suitable for all ages, Everybody is welcome.

[@SIGSEGV1337]

i'm just here for room aesthetic ideas tbh

[@chahakmotwani2015]

From where did you buy these room lights?

Are autistic adults allowed to use this too? Or is it just for kids?
