Conference organiser

The Association & Patient Programme at WBC 2026 is designed to give patients, caregivers, and patient groups a genuine voice within the conference. It creates a dedicated space where lived experience sits alongside clinical insight – ensuring patients are not just present, but actively involved.

The programme includes a focused session in the main conference exploring the emotional and social impact of bronchiectasis, alongside a dedicated Patient Theatre featuring interactive discussions and practical guidance for daily life.

The Association & Patient Village offers a hub to meet organisations, share experiences, and connect with others who understand the realities of living with the condition.

This programme is about connection, understanding, and shared learning – giving you the opportunity to:

  • Hear from both patients and professionals in open, honest dialogue
  • Gain practical, real-world tips to support daily life
  • Ask questions and share your own experiences
  • Connect with a global community facing similar challenges

Whether you want to learn more, feel supported, or simply listen, this is a space built for you. Because when people come together and share openly, information becomes something more powerful: real, actionable support for those that need it most.
