With a new Government introducing sweeping reforms, disability inclusion is entering a decisive new era. Employers, businesses, and public services are under fresh pressure to deliver accessibility and make inclusion a reality at work.
To support your need for critical information, Westminster Insight is delighted to announce its next Disability Inclusion and Access to Work Conference which brings everything you need to know into one place for employing disabled people and people with health conditions.
From the latest legislation to lived experience, this comprehensive event offers practical guidance, case studies and the chance to put your questions directly to those driving real change. Take away proven strategies to shift culture and boost progression.
We’ll unpack the Employment Rights Bill, Equality Bill, Access to Work reforms, new pay gap reporting duties and the Disability Action Plan, showing how they connect and what they mean in practice. You’ll hear directly from disabled people, policy experts, and leading organisations on how to overcome the barriers that hold inclusion back.
Don’t miss this opportunity to network with colleagues, bring your workplace challenges to the table, and gain real solutions from organisations helping you move beyond policies to practical action.

Most disabilities are hidden, and many adults have undiagnosed or unsupported conditions. Approximately 80% of disabled employees have invisible conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety and depression, medical and health conditions, and sensory impairments.
