Looking forward to the Communication Matters National Conference, Leeds, 15th to 17th September 2013

It is that time of the year again!  The kids are about to go back to school, the evenings are getting darker sooner and in a few weeks time one of our favourite events is going to happen, the Communication Matters National Conference.

This is a really good conference for us to attend as it is a real mix of speech and language therapists, users of augmentative and alternative communication and the vendors that sell this equipment.

This year the keynote lecture will be by Paul Maynard MP and we will be in the wonderful city of Leeds for the first time.

So what can you expect from Techcess if you attend?

To start with Techcess will have a competition set up which is asking for creative and practical ideas on how the detachable partner display on the all new Allora can be used to enhance the communication experience for the user.  At Techcess we welcome feedback and this is a fun way to get it as the person with the most creative and practical idea will win a box of sumptuous Belgian chocolates as well as a Fortnum and Mason food hamper!  The winner will be announced at the Tuesday morning coffee break.

We will also be demonstrating the all new Allora as well as our dynamic screen technology  which is controlled by the popular Mind Express software from Jabbla .

If you are going please do come and say hello to us on our exhibition stand and don't forget that we are doing a seminar on Tuesday 17th September at 10:35 in room LG.10 Michael Sadler.

We are all excited once again for meet with so many people in the world of AAC and to gain feedback, learn and have a bit of fun at the same time!

Hope to see you there!
