Communication Works North 2026 - THANK YOU! 👏

We can't believe it's been a whole week already since this year's Communication Works North in Oldham!

There's a few thank you's that we need to give out to those who made the event possible. First off, a big thank you to the staff at Oldham Event Centre at Oldham Athletic FC who helped us in our move to a bigger venue and supported us every step of the way to make sure everything went off without a hitch, not an easy feat! Another big thank you is owed to Ryan, Katy, Tina and the staff here at Ace Centre who helped to organise and run the event in such a professional manner. A special thanks goes to Carly Hynes for delivering a brilliant keynote address and sharing her experiences with our attendees.

We'd also like to take a moment to thank all the exhibitors who showcased and presented their work, tech, resources and experiences and made this year's event the biggest we've ever done.

Lastly, and most importantly, we'd like to thank all of you who attend and make this event what it is, it's amazing to see such a variety of people coming together to share their stories, knowledge, guidance, experiences and support, and finding out about the world of Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC) and Assistive Technology (AT), it really is about you at the end of the day!

Keep your eyes peeled for our full review in our blog coming shortly and watch this space for announcements relating to Communication Works 2027 later this year.

Once again, thank you for being a part of this incredible event and we'll see you soon...
