Put it in the diary! The Disability Expo will be coming to London this 6th and 7th July, as the UK’s leading person-focused event for people with lived experience of disability.

It will offer "relevant services, products and information – empowering you with the tools you need to improve your quality of life."

You can register for free, but you don't have to travel all the way to ExCeL London to take part, you can also register virtually, and attend events and talks from the comfort of home :) 

Among the talks at the People's Panel across both days, topics covered include:
  • The challenges of Domestic and International Travel
  • Disability Representation in the Media
  • Housing and Building Accessibility 
  • Sport, Fitness and Wellbeing
  • Digital Accessibility
  • Sex and Relationships
Sound interesting? You can find out more on the Disability Expo website!

If anyone does attend, in person or virtually, I'd love to know what your thoughts are :)

    I'm not too sure @Oddball but I'm going to see if I can watch some talks virtually :)

    Hi @oddball just to get back to you on this, Scope will have a stall at the event in ExCeL; two of the London employment team will be there, along with Gaby from Youth Community Collective, and the lovely @Giovanni_Scope :)
