If you’ve never been to an unconference, Don’t Panic.
Instead of a schedule arranged ahead of time featuring presentations and panels brought to you by the great and the good, everyone in the room gets to help design the agenda for the day as the first order of business.
We invite all attendees to propose ideas and topics that they would like to discuss, then with a brief flurry of concentration, post-its and pragmatism we arrange these into a session grid (schedule).
Have a look at our dedicated page on Pitching and Leading a Session for an explanation of how this works and what help is available.
To give you a taste of the kinds of things that come up, you can see the session grids from past UK Health Camps or a spreadsheet of all the past sessions.
The events space we are using within the Accurx Offices is accessible including accessible toilets.
There is a dedicated prayer / meditation / quiet room available for attendees to use throughout the day.
If you have any specific requirements please contact us: us@ukhealthcamp.com.
We have a Code of Conduct and ask for cooperation from all participants to help ensure a safe environment for everybody at UK Health Camp.
If you have any concerns throughout the day, please find a member of the UK Health Camp team who will help you.
Inline with UK Government guidance there are currently no requirements for an explicit COVID-19 risk assessment for an event. Government restrictions including mandatory COVID-19 status checking to enter venues have also been lifted.
However we expect attendees to act in a sensible and responsible manner and not attend if they are unwell, symptomatic or testing positive for COVID-19. We also expect - inline with our Code of Conduct - attendees to respect the choice of those who chose to take precautions to manage their risk during the event (e.g by wearing a mask).
As noted above inline with current UK Government guidance there is no requirement for mask wearing during UK Health Camp 2022. However we expect attendees to respect the choice of others to either wear a mask or not.
When registering for a ticket you may have noticed the question:
“Would you use a free onsite crèche/childcare if available?”
Unfortunately, we are not going to be able to provide a crèche/childcare this year. We appreciate this may have an impact on those with caring responsibilities who would like to attend.
If this affects you and your ability to attend please email us@ukhealthcamp.com
We are planning to run a small cloakroom (free) which will be staffed at the beginning and end of the day. Belongings are left entirely at your own risk.
If you need something from the cloakroom just find an organiser or camp maker and they’ll help you out.
There is no specific dress code for UK Health Camp. Please wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Usually most attendees are in informal or casual wear.
You can view pictures taken by Paul Clarke of UK Health Camp 2015 here for more detail.
There will be an event photographer taking photos primarily for future publication and promotion of UK Health Camp. Other attendees may also be taking photographs.
If you do not wish to be photographed please let us know at registration and we will give you a yellow lanyard.
As per our Code of Conduct we ask other attendees taking photographs during the event to also respect this choice.
