So the lovely folks who run the Marymass every year have asked for suggestions on how Marymass can be made inclusive to all of our families.

A couple of points raised..

🔹️A secure area with fencing with one entrance point that allows a safe space for our little runners.

🔹️An area with reduced noise and busyness to limit overstimulation.

🔹️Even surface for wheelchair users and those with limited mobility.

🔹️An asn slot for the shows for a couple of hours where music was reduced/off to those who who find loud music off putting.

A couple of queries the lovely members had were..

❓️Would you attend Marymass Saturday within a private asn area or would you prefer this to be on a different day?

❓️Within the private area what would you like to see? We have mentioned bouncy castles and messy play. Other suggestions are welcome!

Please comment so that we can feed this information back 👇🙌💬
