- Free Blue Badge Parking and Shuttles
- BSL Interpreters at our seminars
- Allocated space for wheelchair users in theatres and dining areas
- Live captioning
- Additional accessible toilets and HDU units
- Quiet space, outside of event hall
Naidex is a hub of innovation, a platform for driving accessibility forward, and a catalyst for positive change. We continue to adapt and add to these each year.
