BBC has just released a new video charting the story of Manchester's first rave for those with learning disabilities.

The event, put together by self advocacy group Manchester People First and club promoter Meat Free, was designed to create a safe space for all types of music fans.

In the short feature video, many of the attendees speak on often feeling unwelcome in standard club settings and being unable to enjoy rave culture.

The heartwarming footage showcases the all-inclusive environment of the event, Under One Roof, where party-goers dance, smile and lose themselves in the music.
