As this group has now been running for more than two years, it is time for us to put the call out for Thematic Group Leaders. Are you interested in picking up this role, either in conjunction with some of the current convenors or as a completely fresh team? We would like to encourage postgrads or people who are not experienced in these sorts of roles to step up, as we can provide mentoring into the position as co-convenors if that suits you.

We will be holding a thematic group meeting on Thursday at the TASA conference, during lunch from 1.15-2pm. We will circulate a room for this shortly. If you can’t make it to the meeting please feel free to send us any thoughts you have on what the group should be doing in 2026 – or anything else!

See some of you this week,

Ben, Sam, Andy and Cath
