We’re proud to welcome families back for our SEN-Friendly Christmas Lights and Reindeer Experience – a specially adapted evening designed to offer a magical, inclusive, and comfortable experience for children and young people with SEN and Autism across Dorset and beyond.
This relaxed and thoughtfully planned event allows families to enjoy the festive wonder of Nutley Farm in a calmer setting, with sensory considerations in place throughout.
Sensory Adjustments
No music in the barn or festive area for a quieter, sensory-friendly experience
Reduced volume of music along the illuminated trail to allow for a peaceful walk through the lights.
