Kidz South
Thursday, 24th June 2010
9.30am – 4.30pm
Rivermead Leisure Complex
Richfield Avenue, Reading, RG1 8EQ
One of 3 of the largest, FREE UK exhibitions totally
dedicated to disabled children, their families and carers,
and the health care professionals who work with them.
Information on mobility, seating, beds, communication,
access, education, toys, transport, style, sensory, sports,
leisure and much more...
Now in its fourth year, this exhibition promises to be a
hive of activities with over 90 exhibitors attending. Many
of the companies that exhibit at the 'Kidz' events you see
year on year, as they 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.
We have some excellent speakers presenting our free seminar
sessions who can provide you with information on best
practice, new research and good practical advice. For our
professional visitors, certificates of attendance are
available to support your continued professional
development. Children and parents are very welcome to
attend.
Attending the 'Kidz' exhibitions is more crucial now than
ever. The Government is investing £340 million
in equipment and wheelchair services, short breaks and
palliative care for disabled children. In addition, the
introduction of individual and personalised budgets may
enable the children and/or parents to have a greater say in
what equipment and services are most appropriate. The
information you gather at the 'Kidz' events can ultimately
improve the life of children, their parents and extended
family.
A flyer for the event is also attached, please feel free to
copy/circulate to your colleagues and service users as you
feel appropriate.
We do welcome feedback as year on year, we want to improve
our events. Please take the time to complete a questionnaire
at the event, or email your comments and suggestions to peter.dean@disabledliving.co.uk
