Sensory Room to open at The County Ground

A Sensory Room is set to open at The County Ground for the 2025 season, in partnership with The Whistle Foundation. 

The room, located in the Pavilion, will provide a safe space for supporters with sensory issues and is now available to be pre-booked. The room will open during the opening Rothesay County Championship fixture against Gloucestershire, and will be available to book from Sunday 6 April.

Derbyshire have consulted with charities, as well as other industry-leading sports clubs, when designing and installing the Sensory Room, with several fibre-optic light fittings, 3D  wall features, soft seating and more included.

There will be a capacity of four children, accompanied by a carer, at any time, to ensure the room remains a calm and enjoyable space for those who need it. While there is no time limit on bookings, time slots may be apportioned for games with more bookings, to ensure all bookings can be facilitated.

This addition is part of Derbyshire’s ongoing commitment to making The County Ground the most accessible venue in English cricket, which has seen the installation of wheelchair viewing bays, improved accessible toilets and a multi-faith room in recent years.

To book the Sensory Room, you must have already purchased a match or event ticket. The facility will be available to those who have not pre-booked, subject to pre-bookings, capacity and the Sensory Room Policy.
