Sensory Activation Vehicle

About the Sensory Activation Vehicle

In Hampton Roads, numerous city-wide and regional festivals and events bring communities together each year. However, many individuals with invisible disabilities and sensory impairments, such as stroke, Parkinson’s, PTSD, dementia, and autism, are often excluded due to lack of accommodation. This exclusion leads to isolation and prevents these individuals and their families from enjoying these community gatherings.

To address this issue, Coliseum Central purchased a Sensory Activation Vehicle (SAV) to create a more inclusive environment at such events. The SAV is a mobile, wheelchair-accessible, and climate-controlled space equipped with interactive sensory stations and comfortable seating, offering a calming and sound-proof environment for attendees requiring respite. The SAV was donated to the City of Hampton.

Rent the Sensory Activation Vehicle

The SAV is now available for rental on the City of Hampton’s website. Rental is available to ANY businesses, organizations, and/or event planners throughout the Hampton Roads region.
