The brief
Built around the families' questions.
The second day opened the room to parents and children living with paediatric hydrocephalus. Panels followed the questions families ask — diagnosis, treatment options, school, daily life with a valve and the move to adult care — and closed with families telling their own stories.
The stage moved from the blue of the scientific day to warm orange, with the same lounge format and LED backdrop.
