Hi all,

It is time again for a TES General meeting.

The meeting will be a get-together for the whole of the organisation (and friends of the organsation) where we can have a discussion about what has been happening in TES and where we want to go in the future.  There will be time for idea sharing, brainstorming, feedback from each of the working groups, and of course celebration!

If you are new to TES and are interested in gettting involved, this is a great time to come along and meet the rest of the community and learn how!
