Come to this half day conference to learn how to become more inclusive as a business, hear from two specialists that will share simple and real examples on how businesses can be more accessible and inclusive.

What to expect:

• A better understanding of common barriers faced by people with physical or mental health conditions. 

• A clearer view of where barriers might exist in their own business. 

• Ideas they can take away and develop in their own time — including quick wins, longer-term changes, and where to get help if needed. 

The conference will start with the two speakers, then a panel and then participants will be able to work in small groups to spot barriers in their own business and develop realistic and doable ideas.
