As one of the UK’s leading names in bespoke staircase solutions, Stairbox is opening its doors—and its technical secrets—to professionals and homeowners alike in Stoke-on-Trent. This event serves as a comprehensive deep dive into the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. Attendees will gain first-hand insight into how Stairbox utilizes advanced CNC machining and 3D modeling software to transform raw timber into complex, elegant structures. The exhibition floor will feature full-scale installations ranging from minimalist oak glass-balustrade flights to space-saving spiral solutions and traditional spindle designs. Beyond the physical displays, the event features a series of technical seminars. Our lead designers will host "The Anatomy of a Staircase" sessions, focusing on building regulations (Part K), structural integrity, and the aesthetics of mixed-material joinery. Whether you are dealing with a tight renovation footprint or a grand new-build entrance, our experts will be available for one-on-one design consultations. We are also proud to highlight our commitment to sustainability. A dedicated section of the expo will focus on the ethical sourcing of timbers and the reduction of waste through precision engineering. For trade professionals, there will be exclusive networking slots to discuss partnership opportunities, trade discounts, and the integration of Stairbox’s online design tool into their own client workflows. Join us in Stoke-on-Trent for a day dedicated to the "spine of the home." Discover how innovation is making bespoke joinery more accessible, faster to install, and more durable than ever before.

The BFS Reproductive Medicine Regional Seminar in Leeds is designed to provide a high-level update on the rapidly evolving landscape of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Held at the modern Horizon Leeds venue, this one-day seminar brings together the North of England’s fertility community to discuss regional challenges and global breakthroughs. The program is curated to address the most pressing issues facing clinics today, from the optimization of ovarian stimulation protocols to the ethical considerations of emerging genomic technologies. The seminar begins with a keynote address on the "State of the Nation" in UK fertility care, highlighting recent HFEA data and what it means for clinical practice in Yorkshire and beyond. Following the keynote, sessions will dive into the science of embryo selection, including the latest findings on time-lapse imaging and non-invasive pre-implantation genetic testing (niPGT). These technical discussions are balanced with sessions on patient-centered care, focusing on how to improve the overall patient experience and manage expectations throughout the IVF journey. A major focus of the 2026 seminar will be "Sustainability in the Fertility Clinic." Experts will lead a panel discussion on how to reduce the environmental footprint of ART without compromising clinical outcomes. This includes waste management in the lab and the carbon footprint of medical supplies. The afternoon will feature breakout sessions where attendees can discuss specific regional audit results and share best practices for improving pregnancy rates and reducing multiple birth rates. This seminar is more than just a series of lectures; it is a forum for collaboration and peer support, ensuring that practitioners in the Leeds area remain at the forefront of reproductive excellence.

Adult ADHD has seen a significant rise in diagnostic rates and public awareness, yet clinical services often struggle to keep pace with demand. This one-day course, "ADHD in Adulthood," provides an up-to-date, clinically relevant overview of the disorder, focusing on the unique challenges presented by adult populations. The Andrew Sims Centre has curated this session to bridge the gap between childhood neurodevelopmental understanding and adult psychiatric practice. The morning sessions focus on the neurobiology of ADHD and the diagnostic process, including the use of validated screening tools and the importance of developmental history. The afternoon shifts toward management, covering both pharmacological treatments and non-pharmacological interventions such as CBT and coaching. A significant portion of the day is dedicated to comorbidities—addressing how ADHD frequently masks or co-exists with anxiety, depression, and substance misuse. Attendees will leave with a clear diagnostic framework and a modernized approach to treatment that emphasizes functional outcomes for patients. This course is an essential update for any clinician working in adult mental health, offering a space to discuss the complexities of high-functioning adults and late-life diagnoses.

This comprehensive full-day seminar, titled "Potential Severe Adverse Effects of Psychotropic Medication (Part Two)," is a flagship offering from the Andrew Sims Centre’s clinical update series. While the primary benefits of psychotropic interventions in mental health are well-documented, this session dives deep into the "shadow side" of pharmacology. The curriculum focuses on identifying, managing, and mitigating long-term or permanent serious adverse effects that can significantly impact patient quality of life. The course is structured to provide clinicians with the latest evidence-based research regarding metabolic syndromes, tardive dyskinesia, and rare but life-threatening reactions like Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome. Attendees will engage in interactive case study reviews, allowing them to apply diagnostic criteria to real-world scenarios. The session also covers the ethical implications of prescribing, emphasizing the importance of informed consent and the ongoing monitoring of patients on long-term medication regimens. By the end of the day, delegates will have a robust framework for assessing risk-benefit ratios in complex psychiatric cases. This event is vital for those looking to enhance patient safety and clinical excellence within their practice.

As the UK strives for Net Zero by 2050, the Leeds Sustainability & Green Tech Workshop provides the practical tools and technical knowledge required for the built environment to adapt. This workshop, facilitated by Built Environment Networking Limited, is an intensive session aimed at professionals who need to implement ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) strategies in their projects. The day is split into technical modules, covering topics such as retrofit technology for older building stock, the integration of heat pumps in commercial developments, and the use of carbon-neutral materials. Unlike a traditional conference, this workshop emphasizes peer-to-peer learning and problem-solving. Experts in green technology will demonstrate new products, while legal specialists will discuss the changing landscape of environmental regulations. For developers and architects in Leeds, this is a vital opportunity to stay ahead of the legislative curve and ensure their assets remain "future-proof." The workshop format ensures that every attendee leaves with a concrete action plan for their specific business or project.
