The conference will take place on the ground floor and level two of 116 Pall Mall. Lift access is available throughout the venue.
All conference rooms are wheelchair accessible. If you require a reserved wheelchair space, please contact us at events(at)lifearc.org.
Due to the Grade I listed status of the building, there are restrictions on access for motorised or battery-powered wheelchairs and vehicles. If this may affect you, please let our events team know as soon as possible at events(at)lifearc.org.
Front door ramp access must be pre-booked. Please email events(at)lifearc.org. in advance.

All conference rooms are wheelchair accessible. If you need a seat reserved in the front row, back row, or aisle for accessibility reasons, please contact events(at)lifearc.org.
Please note, a quite area cannot be guaranteed due to the space available with the venue.
We will not display flashing lights or images in any of the conference areas, eg. conference rooms, exhibition and catering space, etc, however video content shown by presentation speakers may feature flashing images.
Induction loops using the T-Coil System will be available. You will need to switch your hearing aid to the ‘T’ position. In addition, we ask all speakers and any questions from the audience to use the microphones.
If you wish to use the induction loops, please contact us at events(at)lifearc.org so we can ensure you are seated in the section near the loop.
116 Pall Mall welcomes all assistance dogs; however, no pets are permitted. So, we can make sure your guide dog is well looked after, please email us at events(at)lifearc.org before you arrive.
