A relaxed, daytime cinema experience

Monday Movies

May’s movie: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Movie Mondays are our new monthly daytime film screenings.

We will be showing well-known and much-loved films in a calm and comfortable setting. The lights will stay softly on, and the sound won’t be too loud. There is no pressure to sit still or be quiet. You are free to move around, chat, or take a break if you need to. These screenings will be suitable for people living with dementia and their carers, or anyone who may benefit from a relaxed environment.

Every ticket includes a free tea or coffee and a slice of cake, giving you the chance to enjoy a warm welcome and some friendly conversation before settling in to watch the film.

We want every guest to feel relaxed, supported, and able to fully enjoy their visit. To help us achieve this, we kindly ask that attendees living with dementia are accompanied by a carer, family member, or companion throughout the event. Together, we can create a welcoming environment and share the joy of the movies.

Film titles and screening dates change each month – our movie for May will be the ultimate family favourite, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!

A weird inventor, Caractacus Potts, invents an amazing flying car, which drives by itself. It takes him and his family to Vulgaria, where the sinister buffoon Baron Bomburst kidnaps the car. The baron has made children illegal, and Caractacus and Co. have to try and rescue the children of Vulgaria in this classic children’s story.
