Here at Watershed we want to be as welcoming, inclusive and accessible as we can for everyone: for all of our customers, audiences, staff and visitors.

We are pleased to introduce our first Relaxed Screening, screenings that are designed to benefit our customers with additional needs (such as people living with dementia, autism, or other neuro-diverse people and their personal assistants, friends and family) or anyone who wants to enjoy a film in a more relaxed environment. Everyone is welcome.

Here's what you can expect at these Relaxed Screenings:

  • The cinema doors will open 20 minutes before the screening start time
  • We won't show any trailers or adverts and the film will start promptly at its advertised start time
  • The lights will be up a little
  • The sound will be down a little
  • You are welcome to move around the cinema, to talk and make noise, and to exit and enter the cinema as you please
  • There will be lots of space in the cinema so you can spread out or lie down if you choose. It is very informal and yoga mats and beanbags will be available
  • We will screen films with Descriptive Subtitles whenever they are available
  • We will provide a separate quiet space where you can chill out if you need to
  • Our staff will be around to help with whatever you need

Our first Relaxed Screening film will be The Peanut Butter Falcon, an adventure about a young man with Down's Syndrome who runs away to chase his dream of becoming a professional wrestler. It will have Descriptive Subtitles at both screenings.

We really want to hear your feedback. Email us at access@watershed.co.uk, call 0117 927 5100 or speak to us in person to let us know what you think and if there's anything we can improve.
