Situated in Celtic Park’s east stand and overlooking the pitch, The Lions’ View Sensory Room is a free of charge, safe space for children and young people living with auditory, visual or sensory disorders, including autism and similar conditions.

As well as providing a soundproof viewing area for 14 participants, the space features a host of state-of-the-art equipment designed to foster a calming, interactive environment to learn, develop and grow.

Planned in extensive consultation with leading industry experts and service users, The Lions’ View Sensory Room will allow children and young people to learn and develop in real world scenarios, such as those typically encountered in a footballing environment, while accounting for their needs and any sensitivities.

Celtic FC Foundation’s Sensory Room has also drawn praise from equality organisation, The Shippey Campaign – a group advocating for the implementation of Sensory Rooms in football stadia across the UK.
