Lincolnshire Autism Conference 2026
About this Event
Please note there are five workshop topics running throughout the day over six time slots. Please consider talks and other workshop times you may wish to attend before completing booking.
The EPIC centre, Lincolnshire Showground, provides a welcoming space with facilities such as changing places, free parking, wheelchair accessibility, and a fantastic reception area for our volunteers to greet and check you into the event.
Grab a drink and a pastry before you head to the West Hall. After hearing from the ever-fascinating Dr Luke Beardon, you can then head upstairs for a workshop, or stay for the topic talks.
In the East Hall, you will find many opportunities to connect with services, support networks, or gain practical advice from our many information stands. Lunch will be provided from 12:05, so please ensure you let us know any dietary restrictions when booking. You are welcome to access the calm space throughout the day, and professionals are available for 1:1 support.
Whether you are seeking knowledge, support or new ways to create inclusive environments, this conference offers a welcoming space to learn, connect and collaborate. Together, we can build communities where everyone is valued, supported, and empowered to thrive and take up space. Because inclusion is everyone's responsibility-and everyone has a role to play.
