Disabled Living is delighted to be back at the Jaguar Exhibition Hall at the Ricoh Arena for its 2nd year. There has already been a great deal of interest primarily due to the success of our first event in March 2009, but also because the Jaguar Exhibition Hall at the Ricoh Arena is an easily accessible venue, with the exhibition hall on the ground level.

Many of the companies that exhibit at the ‘Kidz’ events have chosen our exhibitions to launch new equipment and products, so make sure you visit all the stands. The company representatives are often experts in their field and usually have solutions to what may seem like unmanageable problems. So, do take the opportunity to pick their brains.

Due to demand from companies, this year we are expanding the exhibition space for this event to 4,000 sq metres – twice the size of last year’s exhibitions. There is more reason than ever to visit ‘Kidz in the Middle’ with the Government investing £340million in equipment and wheelchair services, short breaks and palliative care for children with disabilities.

To support Government agenda and new for ‘Kidz in the Middle’ we have a significant area solely dedicated to leisure activities, with a sports arena where children can participate in inclusive activities. We are working in partnership with John Moores University in Liverpool and local recreation services to deliver these exciting activities.

Also taking place alongside the exhibition is the half day conference ‘Best Practice & Essential Techniques in Paediatric Moving & Handling’ – an essential update’ click here for more information.

We have some excellent speakers presenting our free seminars sessions who can provide you with information on best practice, new research and good practical advice. There will also be a series of seminars specifically aimed at P.E teachers and leisure centre staff. For our professional visitors, certificates of attendance are available to support your continued professional development. Children and parents are very welcome to attend.
