Supporting the industry to deliver accessible events

The purpose of these guidelines is to provide best practice guidelines and support pharmaceutical clients, market research and fieldwork agencies in delivering accessible events by considering possible access needs. These efforts help to support equality of access by reducing barriers for participation and providing those with access needs with the opportunity to engage with events. Enabling participation enhances the value of your events and invites perspectives which may not be gained elsewhere. 

This guide is intended to provide some examples of best practice; not all suggestions made may be relevant or practical to implement in every instance. It is equally important to consider and communicate what is not possible.

These accessibility guidelines are provided as considerations and delegates/attendees should always be invited to inform the organiser of any specific assistance requirements so that appropriate support can be arranged wherever possible.
