BSides Leeds was an absolute cracker of a day! Community conferences are very dear to my heart, and as an honorary Yorkshire woman, this one is a particular favourite.
Three incredible tracks, a wide and wonderful selection of villages, a charity sticker stall, an awesome afterparty, and hundreds of participants gladly learning, sharing, and connecting!
We raised over £3000 for a local cancer charity - The Candlelighters Trust - which is just fantastic. Thank you to everyone who generously donated!
And for us at [company:4009e469-1610-4b21-9de1-877199095320:CYBERR], this was our first time sponsoring a BSides event - we had some great conversations about the community we're building here, and got some awesome feedback.
Thank to everyone who made it happen - volunteers, speakers, participants, and sponsors 😍
