About this event
This is a fun community open day where accessibility and inclusion are at the heart, and we hope every visitor leaves feeling safe, connected, and enthusiastic about opportunities. Through sessions and experiences, people (disabled and able-bodied) can engage with various aspects of mobility and disabilities to increase their knowledge and confidence in products and services that are available to users, families and community members. We cater for varying levels of interest and needs from new users to clinical therapists, from those in wheelchairs to those with vision impairment. You can attend for an hour, or two, or stay the whole day. Register today and enjoy free food vouchers when you arrive, along with the chance to win amazing event tickets in our prize draw.
