We've partnered with Dementia Friends and the National Autistic Society to bring shoppers a Sensory Shopping hour at Drake Circus.
On the first Saturday of every month between 9am and 10am our stores will be turning off their music and dimming their lights wherever possible, to create a low sensory shopping experience.
This is just another way that we are making Drake Circus more accessible and creating a welcoming experience for all customers.
Store opening times at Drake Circus Plymouth may vary. Food will be open later – please check retailer websites for further details. Please note the centre will be closed on Easter Day and Christmas Day.
