Story
Sensory equipment is designed to remove the obstacles present in day to day life which limit access to experiences, and enjoyment of life for people with complex physical and learning disabilities.
Sensory equipment offers an atmosphere of relaxation and provides people with cognitive impairments and other challenging conditions the opportunity to enjoy and control a variety of sensory experiences. Providing this stimulating environment can:
Increase concentration and focus attention
Develop or reactivate senses of hearing, sight, smell, touch and taste
Heighten awareness and improve alertness
Improve coordination and motor development
Promote cognitive development by increasing brain function
All of this helps to build confidence and encourage improved communication.
