BAIL's Tales August

News

BAIL has moved!

Come visit us in our new office - Office 8, Portacom A.

BAIL has provided a full programme of presentations this year. As of July 2016 there were 191 attendances at research meetings representing 19 different organisations this equates to 101 hours of continuing professional development. September is a big month for presentations - check out the BAIL Presents, Peer group and research workshop this month!

On a bittersweet note this month we farewell Hans Wouters our Operations Manager, as he takes up the full time role as CEO for the NZ Spinal Trust! Hans has been a pivotal part of BAIL for the last 5 years, and we will miss him in the office. Fortunately the NZST are just next door and Hans will still have lots to do with BAIL.
