The Silent Disco Project CIC

The Silent Disco Project CIC offers therapeutic musical experiences. These are for children and young people with special educational needs or disabilities. 

The company's unique approach uses wireless headphones with individual volume control. They create an inclusive environment where everybody can engage in their own way. It allows personal control within a shared experience. This is beneficial for those with sensory processing differences, communication challenges, and anxiety.

Key benefits:

• Sensory regulation through personal volume control
• Reduced anxiety in group settings
• Enhanced peer-to-peer connection without pressure
• Different participation pathways (dancing, listening, observing)
• Increased engagement compared to traditional group activities
• Improved confidence and willingness to take part

Sessions are adaptable to diverse needs and abilities. Participants can:

• Choose between different music channels
• Adjust volume to their individual comfort level
• Engage in their preferred way without judgment
• Connect with peers in a structured but flexible environment

All facilitators have experience of working with children and young people with SEND. They create a supportive, positive atmosphere that celebrates all forms of participation.

Measurable outcomes from sessions include:

• 83% of SEND participants engage longer than with traditional activities
• 92% of parents/carers report improved mood following sessions
• 78% of settings observe enhanced peer interaction after sessions

The Silent Disco Project is a community interest company. This means they reinvest their profits to subsidise future sessions.

• Schools

• Community venues
• ...Any suitable space!
