We hope you enjoyed #BISA2026. This was a great year for us - our event with SeaCheck was fantastic, and we won the working group of the year prize! Three things to think about now:

Read the whole thread, but please think about this is particular. This will be the last of the OG convenors (including me) stepping down and it's so important that we hand over to people who will give the group the time and energy that it needs. Do get in touch if you're tempted and have questions.
