This October, Manor Walks Shopping and Leisure is taking part in The National Autistic Society’s Autism Hour, the UK’s first week-long initiative.

Manor Walks will be holding their Autism Hour on Sunday October 8 at 10am. During this hour they will be taking simple steps to make their shopping centre more autism friendly – from dimming the lights, turning down music, stopping tannoy announcements and sharing information about autism with employees and the public.
Over sixty of the shopping centre’s stores such as ASDA, Sainsbury’s, The Works CeX, Betinni’s, M&S, TKMaxx and Costa Coffee will be taking part in Manor Walks’ Autism Hour.

New Look and Claire’s Accessories will be opening an hour earlier exclusively for people on the autistic spectrum and their families. Manor Walks will also be providing a break-out space where families can chill out if shopping becomes too much.

In addition, Vue Cramlington will be hosting a special autism-friendly screening of the Jungle Bunch at 10.30am on Sunday 8 October. For more information visit, www.myvue.com/cinema/cramlington/whats-on.
