Sensory Environments

Sensory Environments

Mike Ayres has been designing, manufacturing and installing sensory environments since the mid 1980’s (He can’t remember the exact date of the first’ snoezelen’ room he created), and has continued to do so longer than any other company in the UK.

The company has an ethos of providing the very best designs and products available.

  • We develop concepts and carry them through to the completed environments and products.
  • A carefully selected range of products from other companies to compliment our own range.
  • We aim to be the best in the world at what we do, and to always be in the forefront of inspirational and technical developments.
  • We make no compromises in design or manufacture.
  • We have our own extensive production workshops encompassing a wide variety of technologies.
  • When you contact us, you will not be pressed into buying our products. We will listen to your needs, give the best advice we can and let you make the decision.
  • We aim to be the best in our ¿eld, because we think our clients should have the best.

Sensory Integration

Mike Ayres is a professional designer with 30 years experience in creating equipment and environments for people with special needs.

He was instrumental in introducing the Dutch concept of ‘Snoezelen’ into Britain in the 1980's. Since then he has worked on multi-sensory concepts, environments and products for care and education. This web site features many of Mike's original projects.
 
He continues to work on new concepts for whole buildings, individual environments and products, working with architects, project teams, educationalists and professionals in the caring industry. He aims to design and produce the very best equipment and environments for people with special needs and to enable everyone to function successfully in an inclusive environment.

Sensearound Mobile Studio

Sensearound Mobile Studio

Mike Ayres Design is working in association with Brecon Coachworks, a company that specialises in adapting vehicles for specialist use and for people with disabilities.

A new innovation in sensory spaces.
A completely mobile facility, just park and use. It has inbuilt wheelchair and hoist access, air conditioning and a completely resourced sensory space within it.
 
Built to a very high standard.
The vehicle is ideal for working in rural areas, ‘Outreach’ projects, urban areas where you have no permanent premises, community-based schemes and for visiting people at home. It gives you ‘sensory on your doorstep,’ reaches people who cannot get to a Centre and offers a shared resource for a group of Schools or centres.
 
Each vehicle is like a room that is individually designed and made to suit your particular needs. We help you to define an exact brief to work to, and then tailor the vehicle, hoist access and the interior to suit those needs. You choose the vehicle specifications, the sensory equipment, the layout of the space and any other options you want.
 

Sensory Trolley

The original and still the best. Designed by Mike Ayres.

A versatile and mobile sensory resource that can be used anywhere in a building as an addition to a Sensory Room, or as a stand-alone unit; for when you need ultimate mobility or are short of space.
 
A complete sensory resource or room – on a shopping trolley (albeit a specially made one). You just wheel it into a room, put the brakes on, plug it into one 13 amp socket and it’s ready to use. It comes complete with Switch2 control, switches, sound system and any other equipment you want. You can use the kit on the trolley or anywhere in the room. When you’ve ¿nished, just unplug, bundle everything onto the trolley and off you go!

Soft Play Rooms

Soft Play Rooms

Soft play rooms are for boisterous play, to encourage physical development and exploration for all children.
They are also used for sensory work, to encourage motor skills, give physical challenge, for speci¿c teaching and for leisure. Whatever their use, they are great fun!

As well as basic soft play forms, rooms can include a wide range of other equipment to make them even more exciting.
These include projectors, musical steps, activity panels, an in¿nity hut, a sound system and even intelligent lighting. These give much greater opportunities for interactivity and learning skills.
 
We will design a room based on your speci¿c needs and manufacture and install it to the highest possible standards.
 

Responsive Bubble Tubes

The Responsive Bubble Tube is the most advanced, yet easiest ‘interactive’ tool for many teaching, therapeutic and leisure activities.

You can control the colours and bubbles together or separately in a number of different programmes and play co-operative and competitive games with one person or a group of people. This is a very valuable tool for giving choice, enabling independence, learning specific skills and as a sensory experience.
It has 14 programmes or modes enabling highly dependent people to interact with it and each other on a par with physically and intellectually more able people using almost any type of switches.
