Accessibility at the RCGP Annual Conference and Exhibition
We are committed to ensuring our conference is a welcoming and inclusive space for every member of our professional family. By removing barriers to participation, we help all attendees flourish and engage fully with the programme at the SEC Glasgow.
Our onsite facilities:
Prayer and reflection
A dedicated multi-faith prayer room is available for all attendees. This quiet, private space is designed to respect the diverse needs of our community, offering a peaceful environment for prayer, worship, or quiet contemplation throughout the two days.
Families, parents and childcare
To support parents and guardians, we provide a range of facilities to make your experience more comfortable:
- Dedicated parent room: A comfortable space including baby care amenities (changing mats, small fridge, and bottle warmer) and soft play areas.
Wellbeing and sensory support
We recognise the importance of providing spaces to recharge and decompress:
- Wellbeing area: A dedicated zone focused on your mental and physical health during the event.
- Quiet / Sensory room: A low-stimulation environment for attendees who need a break from the busy conference atmosphere to refocus and relax.
Onsite assistance and navigation
Our team is here to help you navigate the event with confidence:
- Identifiable staff: Our event staff wear easily recognisable blue t-shirts and are available to help with any queries or support needs.
- Clear signage: We use large, high-contrast signage throughout the SEC Glasgow to ensure session rooms, registration, and the exhibition are easy to find.
Flexible and inclusive participation
We strive to make our content accessible to the widest possible audience:
- Accessibility requests: Our registration form includes a section for specific requirements, such as mobility assistance or assistive listening devices.
- On-demand content: To support those who cannot attend in person, we offer a selection of conference sessions online post-event.
