By the time you read this, the NDT 2021 Webinar Week will have been and gone for another year. The presenters, chairs and organisers were again very professional and the event went very well online. The range and breadth of topics covered was interesting, with some expanding on the use of familiar technologies and others exploring novel applications. The camp is split as to whether an online event is better than an in-person event, both having advantages and disadvantages. The fact that BINDT hosted the event online for the second year demonstrates how versatile the Institute is, especially when you consider how few members of staff there are. The staff work with a great many volunteers who have a vast range of experience and knowledge; some are supported by their company, while others self-support or are retired. Without these volunteers helping to look after 'our' Institute there would not be an Institute as we know it, so many thanks to all. The same support is also given to the Branches, from the simpler Branch meetings to the more involved events such as the Burns supper, which have also been held remotely.
