♿ Sensory & Accessibility Information

The Place Based Abilities Program is dedicated to ensuring that everyone can participate and enjoy community events, and this Halloween bash is no exception! We’ve made several accommodations to create a sensory and accessibility-friendly environment: 


  • Lighting: Warm, low lighting will set the mood—no flashing lights, to avoid overstimulation. 
  • Noise Control: Music will be kept at a lower volume, and noise-cancelling headphones will be provided for those who may need them. 
  • Breakout/Safe Spaces: Two separate rooms will be available for anyone needing a break from the main event. One room will offer a relaxing atmosphere with minimal noise and calming activities, while the other will be a no-noise zone, complete with fidget and sensory toys. 
  • Food: Dietary and allergy-friendly snacks and drinks will be available to accommodate different needs. 
  • Disability Access: The event venue will be fully accessible, with ease of movement for those using wheelchairs or mobility aids. External access points are also designed to be disability-friendly. 
  • Transport: Conveniently located near a bus stop, and there are disability parking spaces available at Charlestown Square. 

Additionally, we encourage guests to prepare a personal Accessibility/Sensory Toolkit to ensure your own comfort during the event. 


 


Get ready to have a frightfully fun time while ensuring that everyone feels welcome and included. We can’t wait to celebrate with you! 🎉 

This event is proudly presented by the Place Based Abilities Program, promoting inclusivity and fun for all abilities.

The Place is proud to be the first community organisation in NSW to take part in the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program, supporting more people in our community to get connected and build confidence online. Through the program, we helped allocate 30 refurbished laptops to local people in our community, including seniors, carers, people with disability and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Participants receive 12 months of free data, digital skills training and IT Support to help them make the most of their device. Delivered by NSW Telco Authority in partnership with WorkVentures and Good Things Australia, the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program is part of the NSW Government’s Digital Inclusion Strategy. The program helps bridge the digital divide by giving people access to the essential technology, connectivity and support needed in today’s digital world. We’re incredibly grateful for this opportunity for our local community and want to thank everyone who made it possible.
