Social Media
We would appreciate our members and delegates actively promoting this event on social media in the lead up to meeting to encourage attendance and, during the meeting, to show your appreciation of the talks and the event.
The hashtag for this event is:
#SBNSBELFAST2025
Meeting App
A Conference App will be available for delegates and speakers to download at the beginning of March. This will include all you need for the meeting, in the lead up to and, during the meeting itself, whether you are attending in person or virtually.
The SBNS and our local Hosts look forward to welcoming you all to Belfast in March 2025.
SBNS Code of Conduct
In April 2024 the SBNS Launched its Code of Conduct for SBNS Meetings - The Three Principles of Prevention - ST.O.P
1. STay Professional
Don’t use your status to influence/implicitly coerce the vulnerable or more junior
Do not use conferences/educational events as opportunities to seek sexual gratification
Consider your conduct around/after SBNS events, remembering that you represent our society and its values, for example wearing societal identification in public venues
Consider how it may be interpreted if you are photographed/witnessed when you are on study/professional leave
Remember, alcohol is the most common date rape drug – be safe; don’t misuse it
2. Open Your Eyes
Are you blind to your own inappropriate actions?
Are you ignoring poor behaviour in others?
3. Protect Each Other
“Check in” - If you see inappropriate e.g. creepy/sleazy behaviour, and you feel able to do so, ask the “recipient” if they are OK
“Call it out” - If you see inappropriate e.g. creepy/sleazy behaviour, and you feel able to do so, inform the “perpetrator” they are being
e.g. creepy/sleazy, e.g. if it is a friend of yours or someone you know
