Occupational Therapy Show 2026 | NEC Birmingham | 25-26 November 2026
The Occupational Therapy Show returns to the NEC Birmingham on 25–26 November 2026, and we’d love to see you there. It’s where thousands of practitioners, suppliers and sector leaders come together under one roof – and where you’ll find ideas, answers and new connections.
There’s a full conference programme, plus a big, busy exhibition of products, services and innovations. There’s something for occupational therapists practicing in every setting.
Here’s a taste of what you can expect:
- The Elizabeth Casson Trust Feature Zone is back – redesigned to celebrate innovation, collaboration and the future of our profession
- Four CPD-accredited theatres – expert-led sessions on clinical practice, leadership, research, innovation and emerging trends
- Two exhibitor-led theatres – the latest products, practical case studies and real-world solutions
- 200+ exhibitors – equipment, technology, services and assistive solutions
- A new feature in partnership with the Case Management Society UK – exploring the growing role of case management
- Plenty of chances to connect – with peers, sector leaders and suppliers from across healthcare, social care, education, housing and independent practice
Come for the practical ideas, the CPD, the connections and come to talk to us. Prepare for the Occupational Therapy Show to leave you feeling inspired.
Register today for your free ticket – and if you’re coming, do pop by our stand and say hello!
