We want the conference to be as accessible as possible - with that in mind we've selected venues that are accessible to those in wheelchairs, or with restricted mobility and can provide hearing assistance if required. Assistance dogs are also welcome.
Please note that both Stagecoach and First Bus - the two major local operators both use low floor access busses on most routes. More information on other accessibility initiatives are available on their websites.
Please help us to ensure we meet your needs by indicating any requirements when you register.
