THE hallowed slopes of Celtic Park are famous for their noise, colour and passion.

Celtic Fc Foundation Unveil The Lions' View Sensory Room

However, for children and young people living with autism, an altogether quieter space is required for their piece of Paradise. Today, marking World Autism Awareness Week 2019, Celtic FC Foundation is delighted to announce the opening of The Lions’ View Sensory Room.

This initiative marks the latest instalment in the Foundation’s #LionsLegacy project series, following a range of fundraising events across six incredible days in May, 2017, honouring the 50th anniversary of Celtic’s 1967 European Cup victory.

Situated in Celtic Park’s Lisbon Lions Stand and overlooking the pitch, The Lions’ View Sensory Room is a safe space for children and young people living with auditory, visual or sensory disorders, including autism and similar conditions. As well as providing a soundproof viewing area for 15 people, the space features a host of state-of-the-art equipment designed to foster a calming, interactive environment to learn, develop and grow.
