Your guests deserve a travel experience that works for every family.

If you work in travel, hospitality or family tourism — and you believe sensory-friendly should be standard, not special — we'd like to talk.

Why this matters for your business

  • 🧩 1 in 7 people are neurodivergent

    That's a significant portion of every family group that walks through your doors. Most of them are making invisible accommodations every step of the way.

  • 🌻 Sunflower recognition is growing

    More businesses are training staff to recognise the Hidden Disability Sunflower. Families actively seek out and return to partners who get it.

  • 💬 Word of mouth is powerful here

    Neurodivergent families talk to each other — in forums, in groups, in communities. One genuinely positive experience generates far more referrals than any advertising.

What we offer partners isn't a product. It's a signal.

Gentle Journeys works with travel companies, holiday parks, cruise operators and hotel groups who want to do more than comply with accessibility requirements — who want to genuinely lead.

We can help with in-room sensory welcome packs, staff awareness materials, co-branded Sunflower Lanyard bundles, and consultation on what families actually need. Every partnership is shaped around what works for you and for them.

How we work together

  • 🎒 Sensory welcome packs

    Ready-made in-room kits that signal to neurodivergent families they're genuinely welcome — not just accommodated. Branded to your property or co-branded with Gentle Journeys.

  • 🌻 Lanyard bundles

    Bulk Sunflower Lanyard bundles for distribution at check-in, pre-arrival or as part of a family welcome pack. Available in multiple languages.

  • 📋 Staff awareness materials

    Simple, practical guidance on how to support families travelling with autistic and sensory-sensitive children. Not clinical training — warm, useful, applicable from day one.

Common questions from partners

How does a partnership work?

It starts with a simple conversation. Tell us about your venue and the families you welcome, and we'll recommend the easiest way to offer recognised sensory support — from stocking our sensory bags and Sunflower Lanyards to helping your team feel confident supporting neurodivergent guests. Flexible, and easy to start.

Do you offer co-branded products?

Yes — for the right partners we can explore co-branded sensory bags and lanyards that carry your name alongside ours. Get in touch and we'll talk through what would work best for your venue.

What's the minimum order for partnership?

We work with partners at different scales. Get in touch and tell us what you're thinking — we'll give you an honest answer about what works at your volume.

How do we get started?

Send us a message through our contact page. Tell us a little about your business and what you're hoping to offer families. We'll take it from there.

Let's build something worth talking about.

Get in touch and tell us who you are and what you're trying to do. Every conversation starts the same way — by listening.
