The Dycem team has just returned back from an action packed four days at Rehacare in Dusseldorf, Germany. We met some great people from Germany, but also from other parts of Europe, Asia, North and South America. It was fascinating to find out how healthcare systems vary from country to country.

It was Dycem’s first time visiting the College of Occupational Therapists Annual Conference this year, and we had a great time.
Occupational Therapist Jen describes our experience –
I was not disappointed by the 37th Annual COT Conference in Glasgow. I had forgotten that there was such an amazing buzz about the place; so many inspiring people willing to share and learn. There were those just starting their Occupational Therapy journeys and those who could be classed as OT royalty!
The Dycem stand was continually busy throughout the three days and we were left slightly hoarse from chatting to loads of great people. The word spread quickly about our ‘Keep Calm’ coasters and many people were picking up extras for their colleagues who couldn’t make it.
Once again our visitors didn’t disappoint, with suggestions of how to use Dycem and some fantastic ideas for new products.
Dycem is already looking forward to attending the 38th Annual COT Conference in Brighton. See you there!
This year, Occupational Therapist Jen Cave-Ayland came along with us to the Naidex National exhibition. She says –
There was a fantastic atmosphere at Naidex this year with barely a quiet minute on the Dycem stand during any of the three days. We had many familiar faces saying “I’ve used your product for years” and singing Dycem’s praises. There were also some new faces, particularly from Occupational Therapy and Health & Social Care courses. The students were intrigued by Dycem’s versatility. “What do you use it for?” was a popular question to which we replied “What don’t you use it for?!”
Naidex attracted a mix of public and professional and trade visitors, who let us know the different ways they use their Dycem. Popular uses this year were securing motorcycle panniers, helping undo screw caps on wine bottles, putting on stockings and gripping things to the fridge.
Thanks to everyone who came along and gave us useful ideas and feedback. See you next time!
