MANCHESTER United Foundation has developed an online sensory experience of Old Trafford for disabled fans to enjoy a matchday experience from home.

Elaine Curran, lead practition­er at Kingfisher Special School in Oldham, said: “The sensory story has enabled children to experience something they might never encounter.

“For many of the children an actual matchday would be too overwhelmi­ng and so by engaging with the sensory story they can have the experience in a safe environmen­t at school or home.

“For the children lucky enough to visit Old Trafford this story allows us to prepare them for the sights and sounds they might encounter.”

The video – has been produced in partnershi­p with Bag Books, a charity that provides multisenso­ry books for people with learning
