Become An Event Recognised As Being Inclusive For Everyone
MAKING ACCESSIBILITY PART OF THE EXPERIENCE, NOT APART FROM IT
Bass Therapy creates environments that include everyone.
Each environment is shaped by lived experience and disability-led planning. We combine practical accessibility with thoughtful, sensory-aware design that feels part of the festival, not apart from it.
Spaces designed for real human needs.
Our environments offer calm, safe places to rest, regulate, and reconnect while remaining included in the atmosphere around them.
What’s inside our spaces:
• Hoists and profile beds for full physical access
• Light and dark sensory rooms for varied regulation needs
• Calm, low-stimulation areas for rest and reset
• Family connection spaces
• Calming lighting, sound, and textures
• Tactile tools and soft furnishings
• Mindful activity corners
• A trained, lived-experience-led accessibility team
Accessibility designed to feel natural.
Every detail is chosen with intention so the result feels comfortable, welcoming, and quietly inclusive — never clinical, cold, or separate.
ENHANCING ENGAGEMENT, CREATIVITY, AND CALM
Every event has different needs, and our sensory spaces can be tailored to match.
We offer a range of optional add-ons to enrich engagement, creativity, and calm:
• Bubble Therapy – gentle visual stimulation that encourages relaxation and focus
• Sensory Crafting Corners – creative, calming activities designed for mindful expression
• Large Tactile Games – accessible, low-pressure group play that supports social connection
• DJ Workshops – inclusive music sessions that inspire creativity, rhythm, and confidence
• Smash Therapy – a controlled sensory outlet designed for emotional regulation and stress release
These additions can be included as part of your chosen package, space dependent, creating an experience that fits your event’s audience and atmosphere.
DESIGN THAT’S QUIETLY ACCESSIBLE, BUT LOUDLY INCLUSIVE
We don’t just put beanbags in a tent and call it a sensory space.
Every Bass Therapy environment is designed to feel calm, inclusive, and connected to the overall event experience.
Accessibility meets design.
While many welfare spaces focus only on function, we combine sensory regulation expertise with inclusive interior design to create environments that balance comfort, style, and practicality.
Every element has a purpose.
Lighting that soothes, textures that comfort, and layouts that encourage safety and flow. Each detail is intentional, creating spaces that feel safe, welcoming, and dignified.
Design that belongs.
Our environments blend seamlessly into the festival or venue atmosphere, offering guests a restorative space to regulate, reset, and return to the event with confidence.
Setting a new standard.
These design principles set Bass Therapy apart, showing organisers and audiences alike that accessibility can be both functional and unforgettable. Because when accessibility is designed with care and creativity, it doesn’t stand out — it belongs.
BECAUSE INCLUSION BELONGS BACKSTAGE TOO
Accessibility doesn’t end with attendees.
Events are powered by staff, crew, volunteers, and performers. Many of them have access needs of their own. With one in four people in the UK living with a disability, inclusion must extend to everyone involved.
True inclusion goes beyond ramps and viewing platforms.
It means supporting mental health, sensory regulation, and physical access so everyone can work confidently and comfortably.
Bass Therapy provides calm, restorative backstage spaces.
Our designs help prevent burnout, reduce stress, and keep teams focused, balanced, and ready to perform at their best. This approach strengthens wellbeing, morale, and staff retention while protecting duty of care and improving productivity.
We have seen the difference this makes.
Crew who once hid their access needs now feel supported. Disabled artists who never thought they could perform have taken the stage for the first time, from DJs with cerebral palsy using eye-movement technology to blind and autistic musicians performing live.
Accessibility backstage is not an extra.
It is an essential part of running an inclusive, compliant, and forward-thinking event.
DESIGNED FOR CALM, CREATED FOR CONNECTION
Every visitor should feel instantly welcome.
Each person deserves to feel supported and comfortable enough to simply be themselves.
Overstimulation is exhausting.
For those on the edge of overwhelm, even simple moments can feel like too much. Supporting someone with additional needs can be equally demanding, mentally, physically, and emotionally. The Bass Therapy team understands this deeply through both personal and professional experience.
Connection is at the heart of every Bass Therapy space.
Each environment is designed not only for regulation but also for shared understanding. They give people the chance to slow down, connect, and feel part of a community that truly sees them.
Living with access needs or caring for someone who does can often feel isolating.
Our spaces offer reassurance, warmth, and belonging, helping people regain energy and confidence to rejoin the event when they are ready.
INDEPENDENCE THROUGH SENSORY SUPPORT
Many people arrive at events without the sensory tools they rely on every day.
Some may not even realise how much these supports could help until they need them.
Our Sensory Shops make these essentials accessible on-site.
They offer audible defence, sensory jewellery, fidget tools, communication aids, portable sensory lighting, and weighted items to support regulation and inclusion throughout the event.
It’s about more than products.
Our team helps people discover what works for them so they can feel safe beyond our spaces, regulate independently, and enjoy the event for longer.
A flexible service for every event.
As well as being a standard feature within The Sensory Experience, our shops can also run as a standalone service to suit the needs of each event.
INCLUSION IN FULL COLOUR
We believe inclusion means more than access.
It is about participation, connection, and shared experiences.
Our sensory-friendly hair and makeup stations bring the full festival experience to everyone.
Designed with calm lighting, gentle tools, and a soothing atmosphere, they make creativity and self-expression accessible for all.
Whether it’s glitter, colour, or simply added confidence, everyone deserves the same festival magic.
These spaces allow people to enjoy fun, expressive moments without overwhelm. They are intentionally created for those who might otherwise miss out, offering dignity, comfort, and choice in a setting that feels relaxed, inclusive, and safe.
Accessibility should never feel clinical or separate.
Each setup is designed to feel beautifully, naturally included in the festival around it, a space where everyone can shine.
THE SENSORY RESET EXPERIENCE
Calm through balance.
For many, calm doesn’t come from silence. For those with the loudest and busiest minds, it comes from balance.
An inclusive alternative to traditional relaxation.
Many neurodivergent and disabled people find typical relaxation environments inaccessible, overwhelming, or even too quiet to truly switch off.
A new approach to calm.
The Sensory Reset Experience by Bass Therapy offers something different. It is a fully clothed, sensory-led relaxation environment designed for comfort, regulation, and gentle sensory balance.
Created through lived understanding.
Each session blends soft lighting, soothing soundscapes, varying temperatures, weighted comfort, and tactile tools within a mindful design. Completely customisable, clients choose their own sensory focus, from calming sound and hair tingles to tactile interaction over clothing, creating an experience that feels safe, grounding, and personal.
Designed for every body.
This ASMR-inspired space supports anyone who simply needs a moment of calm within a busy world. It is especially beneficial for people with sensory sensitivities, ADHD, autism, anxiety, sleep conditions, or chronic pain.
Accessible calm wherever it’s needed.
Whether part of our full Sensory Experience, within a festival wellbeing zone, accessibility area, or standalone pop-up in any environment, The Sensory Reset Experience helps clients slow down, regulate, and restore balance through sensory calm.
SUPPORT BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE SHOW
Not every event can invest in full-scale training or consultancy, but accessibility should still be achievable. Bass Therapy helps organisers improve inclusion through real, lived-experience insight and practical tools designed for every budget.
Real access reviews, real experience.
Our team attend your event in a lived-experience capacity to see accessibility in action — how it works, where it could improve, and what it feels like for disabled and neurodivergent guests.
You’ll receive a clear, supportive report with achievable recommendations that make inclusion easier to deliver and sustain.
This isn’t about compliance. It’s about understanding how people actually experience your event and using that insight to make simple, lasting improvements.
Resources that make inclusion easy.
For organisers who want to take action right away, we also provide practical guides written by disabled professionals and lived-experience experts.
From sensory setup tips to inclusive communication checklists, our resources help you make meaningful progress, no matter your event size or budget.
Because accessibility shouldn’t stop at the show. It should grow with every organiser who chooses to do better.
ACCESSIBILITY DELIVERED WITH EXPERIENCE
Bass Therapy doesn’t just design accessibility. We deliver it.
Our team can manage accessibility services for your event, supporting everything from pre-event planning and access accreditation to viewing platform operation and post-event impact reporting.
Because we run our own accessible festival, we understand every detail of what it takes to make inclusion work in practice. From planning and setup to staff coordination and guest experience, we bring lived experience, professionalism, and care to every role.
If you do not have the benefit of a dedicated access manager, our Remote Access Management service is designed for you. It provides expert oversight, guidance, and coordination without the long-term cost of an in-house manager.
We also understand that cost plays a huge role in accessibility planning. Everyone should have the knowledge, tools, and confidence to make inclusion achievable, regardless of budget. That is why our downloadable resources make it easy to understand what is required and how to put it into practice, at a price accessible to every event, from small grassroots gatherings to large-scale organisations.
