An IP Ability virtual coffee date
Coffee date for Carers’ Rights Day
Thursday 20 November 2025
12.00 – 1.00 pm, online
This year, Carers’ Rights Day is on Thursday 20 November and the theme is ‘Know your rights, use your rights.’ In this online coffee date, hosted by IP Ability, we will signpost useful resources for carers, but we will also provide a social space for a wider discussion on how carers can look after themselves, as well as an opportunity to share any top tips.
IP Ability is the IP Inclusive community for disabled people, carers and their allies working within the IP professions. We aim to provide a supportive and informative network focusing on issues relating to disability, neurodiversity and health conditions of all kinds, be they mental or physical, visible or invisible, permanent or temporary, sudden onset or progressive.
Who is it for?
Everyone who works in or with the UK’s IP sector is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you are a carer, or what type of organisation or department you work in, what role you play there or how senior you are, we’d love you to get involved!
Bring a guest!
At IP Inclusive we want to reach as many IP people as possible. Why not invite a guest to come to this event with you – someone in a different role or at a different career level, perhaps; an ally or potential ally; or a colleague who’s not yet involved with IP Inclusive? They’ll be most welcome!
Registration
This event is free. So are all our resources. That said, we do need money to keep the show on the road, so if you are able, please consider choosing a voluntary donation ticket. For more information, visit the IP Inclusive fundraising page.
If you have any access requirements, please get in touch with us at [email protected] and we’ll do what we can to help.
