Whether you want to know about how the transition to Education, Health and Care Plans is working, how to navigate adult services or more information on employment, housing or education options, The Transition Event has the experts with the knowledge to share.

Moving into adulthood can be a time of great hope and excitement, but it is also frequently met with uncertainty. The Transition Event aims to help answer your questions, offer you access to experts and give you information to take away so you can best support young people with additional needs.

The full conference programme also has interactive workshops to help you delve into subjects and a one-to-one parent zone where you can discuss questions on a more personal level with our experts.  There is also a packed exhibition of organisations offering local and national services. These exhibitors are selected to enhance your day and help you to find suitable products and services to meet your specific requirements.

This year we have a new venue for The Transition Event Midlands, The Ricoh Arena. Home to Premiership Rugby team Wasps and Coventry City Football Club, and we will be offering stadium tours for pre-booked school groups. Also new for 2018 are workshops for young people from Supported Loving, offering sex and relationship advice.
