West Midlands Combined Authority @ Naidex

 

WMCA is bringing something special to Naidex: a space to stop, chat, and help shape what a more accessible future should actually look like — led by real experiences, not assumptions.

Whether you’re disabled, a carer, a family member, or a professional, your insight can help influence how communities are designed and decisions are made.

Drop in at any point across both days. You can take part in a conversation, share one idea, or submit a story via QR - whatever works for you and your energy levels.

Visit Conversation Corner B-N30
Submit your story via the Stories QR Code or link here (COMING SOON)

What Happens at the Conversation Corner?

 

Expect a welcoming, low-pressure space where you can:

  • Share a barrier you face in everyday life (big or small)

  • Suggest one change that would make the biggest difference

  • Contribute ideas on what “accessible by default” should look like

  • Submit a story privately if you’d rather not speak in-person 


 

 

You’ll be helping to shape thinking across areas like:

Transport & travel | Work & employment | Skills & education | Housing | Health & social care | Wellbeing | AI & technology

.... And anything else that matters to you
