Join Us for Our Peer Support Best Practice Day!

Communication Matters is excited to welcome you to our second Sharing Best Practice Day on 31 March 2026 at the University of Leeds.

This special event is part of our National Lottery funded project, and attendance is completely free.


What to Expect
The day will feature a mix of inspiring presentations and hands‑on workshops, including:

  • AAC users’ experiences of peer support and mentoring
  • Building resilience and exploring what helps us stay strong
  • Life in a communication club – a look at what one club has been doing and why these spaces matter for AAC users.


There will also be plenty of time to meet new people, reconnect with others, and enjoy relaxed conversations throughout the day.


Registration
Space is limited, so please make sure to register by Monday 9 March 2026.

If you’re bringing PAs or family members, please register them separately, ideally with different email addresses.


Travel Support
We are pleased to offer travel and accommodation expenses for AAC users and their PAs or family members. More information on expenses eligibility is included in the registration form.

You are also welcome to join us in person or via Zoom — whichever works best for you.


If you’d like to take part, please ensure you complete your registration no later than Monday 9 March 2026.
