Community Living Wallaceburg is looking for donations to expand its sensory room in an effort to make the service more available to local residents.
The agency announced on Wednesday that it has launched a new fundraising campaign to renew and refresh its “Snoezelen Room”.
The room is a multi-sensory environment that provides users with a relaxed atmosphere. The sensory space provides soothing sounds, light effects, tactile experiences, massage and vibration, and gentle movement that stimulates, relaxes, or calms those using it.
CLW Executive Director Deborah Hook said it can also aid learning and development, and improve quality of life. She added that this service should be more available to our community.
“We want to see this multi-sensory environment used by people living with dementia or a brain injury, children and young adults with attention-deficit or hyperactivity disorder, patients and staff in hospitals and care facilities, members of our first-responders community, and even people working in corporate environments,” she said.
