The West of England Branch is committed to meeting in person (principally). Meetings are usually held on the second Monday of each month and include dinner and drinks at the Swan Inn, Tockington, just one mile from the M5/M4 interchange, commencing at 6.45 pm. Throughout the year, the Branch also has a few activities planned. The Branch meetings are a fantastic and social way to network and meet like-minded NDT technicians and the Branch is keen to get more members of the Institute involved, regardless of age or experience. Please contact the Branch if you would like to find out any more information about these activities or be included in the mailing list advertising for these events. There is now a WhatsApp group to keep members notified on the latest events; please get in touch with Tom Bertenshaw to be added to this group. Any updates to the programme will be publicised in NDT News and on the BINDT website as they develop.
