I'm the voluntary curator of a local community museum. We are already dementia-friendly, many people in our small town are learning Makaton and we are becoming more dyslexia-aware as we gradually replace our signage.
I would like to produce a Welcome Guide for schools and parents and need advice from you - the experts- on what needs to go into it. There are so many things we cannot change like the fluorescent strip lighting but at least we can warn people of what they can expect on a visit.
Any advice gratefully received - Thank you!
I personally have found most small local museums to be already ASD friendly. And I consider them to be places of refuge from the outside world.
That's good to hear - we'll do our best.
