The brand-new Learning Zone at Kidz to Adultz Middle 💭

This new space has brought together leading experts in 24-hour postural care, giving healthcare professionals, therapists and parents the chance to explore practical approaches to posture management across both daytime and night-time care.

From the keynote session to the interactive learning workstations, it has been fantastic to see visitors engaging with the sessions, observing assessment techniques and speaking directly with specialists.

A huge thank you to everyone who shared their expertise and helped make the Learning Zone such a valuable addition to the event.
