The CEA Card enables a disabled cinema guest to receive a complimentary ticket for someone to accompany them when they visit a participating cinema.

The card is one way for cinemas to make sure they are looking after disabled guests. If you require an adjustment, to visit a cinema because of your disability, cinema staff should make reasonable adjustments for you.

Eligibility

To apply, the person requiring assistance must be 8 years of age or older & be in receipt of one of the following:-

• Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
• Attendance Allowance (AA)
• Personal Independence Allowance (PIP)
• Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP)

or hold:-

• Severely Sight Impaired Registration (formally Registered Blind)
• Sight Impaired Registration (formally Partially Sighted)

When applying for a card please send or upload the awarding letter from DWP or a statement confirming receipt of the allowance for the applicant dated within the last 12 months.

Alternatively, for Severely Sight Impaired or Sight Impaired applicants, please send or upload certification for the person requiring assistance.

If you are unable to find this correspondence, or do not meet the above criteria, or believe that as a result of your disability you still need someone to accompany you to the cinema, please contact us.

Please note that we do don’t accept Universal Credit, Employment & Support Allowance or being a Blue Badge holder as sole proof of eligibility.

Your application will require a passport size picture (head & shoulders of applicant) & a payment of £6.00. A CEA Card is valid for 12 months from date of issue.
