A diverse group of attendees participate in a workshop session. In the foreground, a young man in a red sweatshirt and green trousers uses a wheelchair and holds papers, next to a person in a blue hoodie holding notes. Facing them, a woman with bright pink hair in an orange jumper speaks to the group, with a flipchart beside her. Other attendees are seated on chairs around the room, listening and taking notes.
