Our commitment

All attendees, speakers, exhibitors, sponsors and organisers at Nursery World’s Big Day Out are required to agree with the following code of conduct. Organisers will enforce this code throughout the event. We expect cooperation from all participants to help ensure a safe environment for everybody.

The summary

Nursery World’s Big Day Out provides a harassment-free event experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion or lack of religion, or technology choices.

We do not tolerate harassment of event participants in any form.

Expected behaviour

Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any event venue, including talks, workshops, parties, Twitter and other online media.

Event participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event without a refund at the discretion of the organisers.

The extended version

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion, technology choices, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact and unwelcome sexual attention.

Participants asked to stop any harassing behaviour are expected to comply immediately.

Exhibitors and sponsors are also subject to the anti-harassment policy. In particular, exhibitors and sponsors should not use sexualised images, activities or other material. Exhibitors should not use sexualised clothing, uniforms or costumes, or otherwise create a sexualised environment.

If a participant engages in harassing behaviour, the organisers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the event with no refund.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of the organiser staff immediately.

Organisers can be identified as they will be wearing branded badges and will be located in the Organiser Office and the Sales Stand.

Event staff will be happy to help participants contact venue security or local law enforcement, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the event. We value your attendance.

We expect participants to follow these rules on site at the exhibition, the conference and workshop venues and all event-related social events.
