Disabilities
Case Study: Gala Dinner
For the second year running, we were proud to sponsor and support the Hidden Disabilities Gala – an event dedicated to raising awareness and funding for those affected by Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Hosted by Fiona Dwyer, the evening brought together an incredible community of advocates, supporters, and individuals with lived experience, all united by a shared mission to shine a light on invisible conditions.
Our role was to deliver full technical production, with a particular focus on accessibility. We designed and built a stage with integrated ramp access, and supplied a 6x3m LED wall, branded acrylic lectern and table, along with a complete lighting and sound setup – including support for the live band.
Every production choice was made with the audience in mind: no flashing lights, no direct glare, a carefully balanced sound mix, and adjusted screen brightness to ensure a safe and calming environment for all guests.
We also created the event’s digital visuals, from the on-screen background graphics to the LED star cloth backdrop. The event was filmed in full, with post-production handled by our in-house team to create edited content for use beyond the night itself – helping extend the reach of the charity’s message.
As ever, this was more than just a production brief – it was about creating an inclusive, welcoming space that reflected the care and commitment behind the cause. We’re proud to continue our partnership with Hidden Disabilities and support their work in raising awareness and driving meaningful change for those living with POTS.
