    As shared through the HASNET email system recently, the ISTR Executive Committee is pleased to announce the location and dates for our upcoming flagship event, the Autumn Symposium.

    With a theme of ‘travel and transport’ - the symposium will take place on Wednesday 23rd & Thursday 24th of November at the National Railway Museum in York.

    The event will be held in person for the first time since 2019 and include plenty of opportunities to reconnect, or connect with new colleagues. We also plan to have a livestream option available for those who won’t be able to attend in person. More details including times, topics and speakers will be announced in the next few weeks. For now though, please save the date!

    As many of you will remember, last year our Executive Committee members chaired a webinar, working with Camfil Ltd. looking at ventilation in a post-COVID world. The webinar highlighted a need amongst the ISTR membership for help and support in understanding more about how ventilation and filtration works. A common message at the webinar was that members could often feel challenged when discussing issues with their Estates / Facilities colleagues because they didn’t necessarily have the background knowledge.

    As a result of this feedback, we set up a series of workshops to try and address some of these concerns and to empower participating members. The 3 workshops covered everything from understanding the basics of ventilation and filtration, to current and future standards relating to Air Handling Units (AHUs) and filters/filtration and on to operational standards (ACDP, GMP etc.) and some system common outline designs. 

    Following the success of the workshop series, ISTR donated £3,000 to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, as nominated by Camfil. Find out more about the important work of the Cystic Fibrosis Trust on their website.
