Sensory Rooms for Sports Clubs

a necessity in a world not built for neurodivergent people

Sensory Rooms have significantly grown in popularity in the past few years, partly as a result of advocacy by groups like the Shippey Campaign, but also simply as a result of sensory issues, autism and neurodivergence being better understood.

Quite often, a busy and bustling stadium or other venue on a match day can be a confusing and overstimulating environment, leading to stress and upset during what otherwise would be an enjoyable visit. Sensory Rooms help to combat this by offering quiet spaces, soft lighting and calming interactive features that help to relieve tension and emotional overwhelm, meaning neurodivergent people and their families can reset and get back to enjoying their day.

Sensory spaces aren’t just for neurodivergent people, either! Babies and toddlers also benefit from the option of escape to an oasis of calm – as does anyone else who’s finding the hustle and bustle a bit too much to handle.

Our Solution: The RISE Modular Sensory Pod

Pictured above, the standard RISE Modular Sensory Pod comes prefabricated and ready to install on your site with a minimum of disruption to day-to-day operations. Finished internally and externally to your specifications, our expert groundwork and installation team generally spend less than a week on-site preparing the ground and then winching your finished pod into position.

Our Modular Sensory Pods come loaded with a multitude of experiences as standard, with further customisations available on request:

Ambient Strip Lighting

Full gamut coloured lighting installed at ceiling height to provide either a soothing or stimulating colour wash to all walls at the touch of either a remote control or wall mounted button.

Audio System

Our sound system is integrated into the ceiling of the pod and easily controlled via a wall panel; you can connect to it via Bluetooth, WiFi or preload it with sounds to match every mood or purpose.

Sensory Corner Unit and Light Blue Base LED Tube

This has 13 unique lighting modes to engage the senses. There are also 8 different colours to visually enhance sensory and immersive spaces. Users will be delighted by the range of colours, patterns, and lighting effects. The LED tube works great with the sensory room controller. Plus, the remote is portable, making it ideal for wheelchair users.

The Sound Panel Plus is a sound reactive wall panel, that’s easy to set up straight out of the box. It has 13 different modes that light up with lots of different colours and effects. Brightness and sensitivity levels can be adjusted to ensure every user can play.

Aqua Blue Wall Panels

Bespoke designed vinyl covered, foam padded wall panels and furniture/seating area.

Solar 100 LED Projector

Projection has proved the foundation for many multi-sensory environments, assisting development and learning, visual tracking, and cause and effect skills. Our projection kit includes projector, wheel rotator, x3 effects wheels, mirror ball, and pin spot.

Sensory Star Carpet

This provides a sparkling and entrancing play area suitable for children and adults alike. 125 points of light, twinkle through colours with the colour twinkle wheel fitted as standard to the light source. The fibre optic lights can help calm the irritability or anxiety often associated with autism and similar conditions.

Tactile Wall Panel

A variety of fluid shapes, raised and recessed areas, as well as contrasting textures. Textures have been carefully chosen to offer a range of softness /hardness, smoothness /coarseness and include fabric, meal, carpet, synthetic turf and safety mirror. Useful for colour recognition, visual perception and discrimination, the panel allows different movements and use of fine motor function.

Fibre Optic Tails

Our fibre optic tails have a ‘knotted’ effect outer sheathing, providing the extra dimension of touch to the sensory experience. They can be supplied in either a clear or a multi-coloured UV reactive sheathing.
