Welcome to our fourth Network and Learn event!

Come join us for a fantastic opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and learn from industry experts about diversifying your workforce.

This in-person event will be held at Coleman Training Development in Bradford City Centre, a vibrant venue perfect for connecting and gaining valuable insights into learning disability awareness and skill sharing.

Whether you're looking to expand your professional circle, exchange ideas, or simply enjoy engaging conversations, this event is the place to be. Don't miss out on this chance to network and learn in a welcoming and inspiring environment, and break down misconceptions around disabilities.

Previous attendees have told us, "It was a truly inspiring and informative event. Thanks for hosting and thanks for the warm welcome".

"Thank you for such a fantastic event! It was super informative, and a brilliant opportunity to see your lovely space and hear more about the brilliant work of Coleman Training Development."

"I really enjoyed attending and learning more about your business and how you support young people into employment via supported internships. I learnt so much at the event with regards to neurodiversity and neurodivergent needs, so thank you for letting me know the difference."

Mark your calendars and get ready to make meaningful connections at the Network and Learn event!

* JUNE'S THEME IS BASED ON NEURODIVERGENCE AND GENDER. *

We have two guest speakers joining us - Kate Millor from Kate Keir VA Solutions, and John McMahon from Bradford 2025.

Both professiolnals have lived experience of navigating Neurodivergency in the workforce, and will be discussing their personal experiences with us.

Kate is very keen to raise awareness surrounding late diagnosis in Women (due to various life changes within the body) and John will be addressing his recent diagnosis of ADHD and how this has impacted his working life.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I park?

There is a Pay and Display carpark on Nelson Street, directly opposite our building.

How can we travel by public transport?

We are directly beside Bradford Interchange and buses come into the city centre from all across the district. Bradford Forster Square station is a 10 minute walk.

Who is the event aimed at?

Anyone working within recruitment or looking to better understand employees with learning disabilities! We work with young people to train them how to be within a workplace environment (including work experience placements) and the end goal is for them to secure sustainable paid work.

Is there an expectation to work together in the future?

As much as we would love to connect with more employers across the district, there is never any pressure or expectations from us. If you leave the event with work connections and/or more knowledge around disabilities than you had before - that's enough for us.

Is your venue accessible?

There is a lift to our floor and the office is all on one level. We have a wheelchair accessible toilet. If you have any further requirements to support your attendance, please let us know so we can accommodate you.

Organised by

Coleman Training Development Ltd

We will deliver a number of Inclusive Employer events that will tackle and address various barriers that employers and employees face when finding paid work. We want to work with employers to help make their work offers accessible and inclusive, and to break down misconceptions when it comes to disabilities.

These events will be held during the curricular year from September to June.
