Our dementia-friendly screenings take place every second Wednesday of the month.

The film starts at 11am, and our cafe and facilities are be open from 10am for early arrivals, tea, coffee & cake!

As with all our accessible screenings, carers go free.

We’re a dementia-friendly venue and all our staff have been dementia trained via the Alzheimer’s Society. We’ve adapted the space and made adjustments to make sure the space is as safe, helpful, and happy as possible.

This includes:

Additional signage

No adverts or trailers

Lights are left on dim and volume is turned down

The cinema isn’t filled to capacity

Relaxed – eg attendees can sing, dance or talk during the film

15 min interval

Extra cushions & alternative seating available

If you have any questions email us, or sign up for our newsletter to hear about forthcoming screenings!

Accessibility:
Please be aware, the cinema is on the first floor and there is no lift. We do have a medium-wide (1100mm) stairwell with handrails on both sides, and we’ve had several guests with limited mobility join us for films. However it does rely on walking up the stairs (with assistance as required).

Our staff will be ready to lend a hand wherever needed.

Please see here for our Accessibility Document.

A chance for parents and carers with babies under a year old to see the best new films.

The cafe is open from 10am, and the films begin at 11am. The sound is turned down a little, and the lights kept up a little. We'll also help you upstairs with your buggy!

(Please note that due to the need to keep our fire exits accessible, buggies are parked in the bar, where we have staff and CCTV, while the film is on)

Only adults accompanied by babies will be admitted.

Come with us on an adventure through space and time as we explore the outer reaches of the universe in our Summer Of Sci-Fi season!

Wherever possible we play films with the audio description soundtrack. These films are listed below, and can be recognised by the [AD] image beside the film title.

A film with an audio description soundtrack means that we can supply you with headphones for the duration of the film which will relay a special soundtrack with full description of events happening on screen. This means that anyone with visual impairment or other needs can fully enjoy the film.

An audio description soundtrack has no affect whatsoever to anyone without the headphones; it's just like a regular film.

HOH subtitles, or ‘closed captioning’, refers to subtitles specifically intended for people who are Deaf or hard of hearing. They are a transcription rather than a translation, so as well as reproducing dialogue in films, aim to describe every additional non-dialogue sound available to a hearing audience, e.g. “(sighs)” or “(door creaks)” and song lyrics. These subtitles are hard-coded onto the screen. All guests are welcome to purchase tickets to these screenings and in our experience, hearing guests at these performances do not find the subtitles to be distracting at all.

Wherever possible, we play films with the Amplified Audio soundtrack. These films are listed below and can be recognised by the [AA] image beside the film title.

A film with an amplified audio soundtrack is specifically intended for people with hearing impairment. It means that we can supply you with headphones for the duration of the film, and you can turn up the volume as much as you need. 

An amplified audio soundtrack has no affect whatsoever on anyone without the headphones; it's just like a regular film.

Relaxed screenings offer a chance to see films in a relaxed environment and are open to everyone to attend, but are especially tailored for those with autism or others with sensory needs, as well as their friends, family and carers. Relaxed screenings are scheduled every second Sunday of the month.

Look at our Photo social story and read our Access Statement which can be used to see the venue before your visit. There is also a 3D tour of the cinema available here.

What’s different about these screenings?

The sound is lower than usual (we also have ear defenders available), the lights are kept on low, seats are not allocated, the cinema screening is filled to a maximum capacity of 75%.It’s ok to move around or walk out of the screen if you need a break. It’s ok to make noise if you need.

Our staff have all received Dimensions UK training, and we’ll make sure it’s a friendly, welcoming and safe environment.

CAMP CLASSICS presents D.E.B.S.
Welcome to Camp Classics, where we celebrate the films that queer culture has embraced for their unapologetic camp, iconic performances, and unforgettable style. Each screening dives into the movies that have become queer cultural staples—whether they were made with us in mind or not. This month’s camp pick is D.E.B.S. (2004), directed by Angela Robinson. Think espionage meets romance, but with plaid skirts and over-the-top gadgets. This cult favourite follows a secret academy of teenage super-spies, who end up entangled in a forbidden love story between one of their own (Amy) and notorious supervillain Lucy Diamond. D.E.B.S. is the perfect ode to rebellion, love, and high school drama – with killer outfits to match. To quote Letterboxd user C.W. Scott, “the perfect lesbian spy movie that puts lesbianing first and spying second.”

DAMSEL presented by Jellied Reels
It’s the age of The Wild West, circa 1870. An affluent pioneer, Samuel Alabaster (Robert Pattinson) ventures deep into the American wilderness to reunite with and marry the love of his life, Penelope (Mia Wasikowska). For his journey he brings Butterscotch, a miniature horse intended as a wedding present for his bride, and enlists drunkard Parson Henry (David Zellner) to conduct the ceremony. As they traverse the lawless frontier their once simple journey grows treacherous, and the lines between hero, villain, and damsel are blurred. A loving reinvention of the western genre from the Zellner brothers (Sasquatch Sunset), Damsel showcases their trademark unpredictability, off-kilter sense of humor, and unique brand of humanism. "Grotesque, beautiful and unpredictable" - The Guardian "Wonderfully offbeat, endearingly askew, consistently funny feminist Western" - Chicago Sun-Times Jellied Reels serves up screenings of the best films you've never tried (or likely won't find on streaming)...

Horror with Hitchcock: Psycho
You're invited to celebrate Alfred Hitchcock's first foray into the horror genre in 1960! Join us for a special screening of Psycho (which celebrates its 65th year anniversary), starring Janet Leigh & Anthony Perkins. Paramount wouldn't fund the project as Hitchcock wanted to kill off the lead actress halfway into the movie, so he funded it himself and made it in black & white to save costs. It went on to become the highest grossing film of his career. With an introduction & post-screening Q&A from local historian & Hitchcock expert Gary Lewis (of Hitchcock Talks & Tours), this is a one-off Castle Cinema special not to miss. And in case you’re not familiar with the film, here’s a short synopsis:
Phoenix secretary Marion Crane, on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm. Traveling on the back roads to avoid the police, she stops for the night at the ramshackle Bates Motel and meets the polite but highly strung proprietor, a young man with an interest in taxidermy and a difficult relationship with his mother.

They listen to music, talk, read, eat, take a walk, play ping pong… it may not sound like much for a movie, so that’s why You Have To Come And See It. April (Aprili) dir. Otar Iosseliani (1961), 47mins A young couple moves into a new apartment in which water, gas and electricity are controlled by the simple expression of their love. Some of their neighbours, obsessed by a frenetic need for possession, end up convincing them to stuff their home with furniture and soon leaving the couple with dwindling space for feeling.

With an introduction & post-screening Q&A from local historian & Hitchcock expert Gary Lewis (of Hitchcock Talks & Tours), this is a one-off Castle Cinema special not to miss. And in case you’re not familiar with the film, here’s a short synopsis:
Phoenix secretary Marion Crane, on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm. Traveling on the back roads to avoid the police, she stops for the night at the ramshackle Bates Motel and meets the polite but highly strung proprietor, a young man with an interest in taxidermy and a difficult relationship with his mother.
