If you would like further information about any of the above roles, please contact wolvessec@bcs.org.uk.

We will engage remotely for the moment but will think of new ways forward to bring useful and meaningful talks your way. If you have any ideas or would like to hear talks around a specific subject, please write to wolvessec@bcs.org.uk. If you are willing to do a talk or know someone who has something interesting to say, we would be most obliged to hear from you.

Typically, this would be a catered event. Instead, we will offer an opportunity to chat with each other over your preferred refreshment in your own home after the meeting itself, and hopefully be able to share anecdotes for the last few months, which will have a lasting effect on IT.

Our events are for adults aged 16 years and over.
