What’s On At Disability Expo?
Centre Stage
We want all delegates to feel Centre Stage at Disability Expo! The main stage will deliver entertaining and inclusive content from a variety of acts. Including comedy from Britain’s Got Talent finalist Eva Abley, a live episode of The Grumpy Gits Show podcast, an Inclusive Fashion Show and a live performance of the Disability Expo anthem by J Grange. There will also be a panel discussion from Innovate UK’s Award winners.
People’s Panel
An important aspect of our event is empowering those with lived experience of disability to have their voice heard on the issues that matter to them. We will offer a safe space for delegates to discuss and share their experiences with one another, and feel a sense of unity. The People’s Panel will be a forum-style theatre where pressing issues and key topics will be discussed by key influential and knowledgeable panelists.
Community Clinic & Charity Zone
Disability Expo will enhance access to care in the community through a dedicated Community Clinic and Charity Zone. Delegates can get an appointment with a Health Professional free of charge, receive advice and start or speed up the process of care services. Further support will also be available in the Charity Zone. Discover charitable organisations that offer vital services and impartial advice, which may be able to help you improve your quality of life.
