Junction runs a regular programme of autism-friendly cinema screenings. The specially-selected films are shown with low-level lighting and reduced sound levels and the auditorium is opened up 30 minutes before each showing to allow audiences time to familiarise themselves with the space before the start of the film. Visits to the venue before the screening can also be arranged, and there are no advertisements or trailers shown. The screenings are aimed at both children and adults on the autistic spectrum, along with their carers, families and/or friends, so it is fine for audiences to move around, make noise and take breaks during the film.

Please contact Junction or see the website for information about future screenings.
