Conference Care

Sensory Bags

Sensory bags are available to borrow from our event registration desk. Each sensory bag is equipped with a range of items to help you feel comfortable and supported, including a weighted blanket, noise-cancelling headphones, various fidget toys, a colouring book, and gum.

In the conference area itself, you will find a small basket of fidget toys at each table. Free to play and fidget, but please leave them behind for the next fidgeter.

Lap Blankets

We understand venue temperatures can be unpredictable, so we’ve got you covered! We offer fluffy lap blankets to help you stay comfortable. You will find these blankets placed throughout the venue. If you are feeling chilly, please grab one.

Frequent and Extended Breaks

We prioritize the health and wellness of our attendees by including frequent and extended breaks in our event schedules. We often adjust the start and end times to allow for more time between sessions, and we provide longer breaks than typical conferences to give attendees time to rest, recharge, and network. By doing so, we hope to create an environment that promotes learning, collaboration, and well-being.

Photography Opt-Out

From time to time, a photographer is present at in-person BCcampus events to capture images to be shared on our digital platforms and promotional materials. Attendees are always able to decline the media release of photos. Red lanyards identify an attendee who does not want to be photographed.
