We arent called the circus with a purpose for nothing... Yesterday we had a fabulous time in Liverpool. Prior to our first show we held another touch tour, giving our visually impaired audience members the chance to meet our troupe, feel their costumes, and use their props! Both our shows were also deaf friendly and we had Changing Places Facilities on site too! And alongside all off this inclusivity, a spectacular array of circus talent 🎪💖😍 What a great show!!! #Circus #Inclusive #Accessible #ChangingPlaces #Liverpool #Wirral #Signing #TouchTour #DeafFriendly #VisuallyImpaired #MakeADifference #CircusStarr #CircusWithAPurpose

@CircusStarr Waitingfor the show to start in Derby......

"Your show always means so much to our families who are often in a sad and stressful time in their lives; you lighten hearts and provide a much-needed distraction from daily worries and concerns."

Barnardo's Midlands

"The staff are kind, accommodating and understanding so everyone can just forget their worries under the magical spell of the starry canopy"

Down Syndrome Support Group (Huddersfield)

"It isn't always easy to find an event that caters for families where there is a child with a disability / additional needs."

Children and Young People's Disability Partnership (Stockport)

"Live performance is a fantastic experience especially for young people with Autism as no language is required so it is very accessible."

National Autistic Society (Cardiff)

"Circus Starr allows our Young Carers to attend an activity with their families, which they don't often get to do. It's a chance for them to have a break from caring."
