Classic film screening of Wizard of Oz in Mansfield Central Library auditorium that is particularly suitable for people living with dementia

Mansfield Central Library are delighted to be hosting a series of dementia friendly screenings of classic films and musicals

Wizard of Oz (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032138/?ref_=fn_t_1)

Young Dorothy Gale and her dog Toto are swept away by a tornado from their Kansas farm to the magical Land of Oz and embark on a quest with three new friends to see the Wizard, who can return her to her home and fulfill the others' wishes.

These relaxed screenings are particularly suitable for people living with dementia and memory challenges, their family and friends but anyone is welcome. Please feel free to talk, sing and move during the screening.

Doors will open 20 minutes before the screening and there will be a 20 minute interval. We will be sensitive to the audience when it comes to lighting and volume in the auditorium. A quiet room for anyone needing a brief break from the film will be available just outside the auditorium and toilets including an accessible toilet are also just outside the auditorium door.

The auditorium is on the second floor of the building with good lift access. The second row has accessible steps and there are 6 wheelchair spaces available.
