Sensory Friendly Session: Day Out With Thomas

Are you ready to get colourful? Thomas The Tank Engine, everyone’s favourite #1 blue engine is heading to The Workshops Rail Museum. For the first time ever, this day of colourful adventures will celebrate the magic and beauty of colour at Day Out With Thomas: The Colour Tour.

For these very special sensory friendly sessions we will turn the sound down and create an engaging and fun space that children with sensory processing difficulties can share with their families and carers. Numbers are limited.

Let’s get colourful on a railway adventure!
