Join Jennie Williams, CJ Debarra, Laura Mathias and Zoe Lloyd as they discuss neurodiversity, sex, love and relationships. The event is part of the Love Lounge - a free confidential service for disabled people to talk to experts. As part of the event, there will be a chance to meet Rocks Off who helped design the Quest range with Enhance which is an accessible sex toy range and also buy CJ Debarra's book on neurodiversity.

We would be delighted if people could stick around after the event to mingle, chat and meet other disabled and neurodivergent people. There will be a bar open for soft drinks or something stronger!

About the panellists:

Jennie Williams is the founder and CEO of Enhance the UK, a user-led charity which aims to help people with physical and sensory disabilities to live a full life. Jennie, who is dyslexic and has degenerative hearing loss, noticed there were no discussions about sex and relationships in the care plans of many clients she worked with, meaning their needs were being ignored. Determined to end the disability and intimacy taboo, Enhance the UK now runs an ‘Undressing Disability’ campaign focused on the sexual rights and responsibilities of disabled people, petitioning for inclusive sex education in schools. Jennie also set up the ‘Love Lounge’, an online forum for advice and answers regarding sex, dating and relationships for those with impairments, which has pride of place on the charity’s website.

CJ DeBarra is a queer, non-binary, Irish journalist and author. They were diagnosed with ADHD and ODD at the age of 10. They published Neuroqueer, a neurodivergent guide to love, sex and everything in between in 2024. Although based in Nottingham, CJ travels across the UK delivering talks on ADHD and sex from a queer and non-binary perspective.

Laura Mathias is a communications manager, campaigner and alopecia awareness advocate who also has ADHD. Diagnosed with Alopecia from a young age, she has embraced life and changed her perspective for the positive. Laura is on a mission to advocate for those living with any sort of visible difference.

Zoe Lloyd is a qualified counsellor who works around the topics of disability, love, sex and relationships. She is a full-time wheelchair user due to a rapid onset of Rheumatoid Arthritis when she was 18 years old. As Enhance the UK's resident Love Lounge expert, she brings a mix of real-life experience and counselling skills to Undressing Disability.
