Welcome to our group!

We hold a number of events throughout the year, covering a range of data management topics. We usually record our events too, so those unable to attend don’t miss out!

Everyone is welcome, members and non-members alike. If you want to get involved or have any ideas for our forthcoming programme, please do get in touch at groups@bcs.uk.
