Throughout the year there are various shows and expos for people who use mobility aids and those who live with disabilities at their heart. You may even see some of our colleagues at one or two of the shows. When attending these events we always enjoy chatting with our customers as well as seeing the latest products available. If you do attend and see any of us, please stop us for a chat! A summary of some great shows and links to their pages is below:

Disability Awareness Day
Disability Awareness Day ("DAD") is the world's largest 'not for profit' voluntary-led disability exhibition, held annually in a huge tented village within the grounds of Walton Hall Gardens in Warrington. Disability Awareness Day is a pan disability event which promotes a “can do” culture, focusing on what disabled people can do throughout life and work.
The show has three main aims:
To highlight what statutory, private or voluntary services are available to enable disabled people to stay independent.
To promote equipment and aids that could maintain or improve independence, not just what is offered by statutory service providers, we want everyone to see the best and/or latest designs.
To provide an opportunity to showcase what disabled people can do, in the field of Sport, Arts and Entertainment.
Free to attend, Sunday 17th July 2022 – Walton Hall Gardens, Warrington
