How can my child with a vision impairment get the most from a visit to the cinema?
The CEA Card
A national card scheme developed for UK cinemas by the UK Cinema Association (UKCA). The Card enables a disabled cinema guest to receive a complimentary ticket for someone to go with them when they visit a participating cinema.
Audio Description
Most cinema chains show various films with audio description – AD at no extra cost. The regular film soundtrack is broadcast to cinema speakers as usual, whilst a recorded narrator explains what's happening on screen (in gaps in the dialogue) through personal headphones.
Further information can be found on the Your Local Cinema website.
