BiCon 2008 Workshops
Workshops are a vital part of BiCon, they can be on any topic relating to bisexuality and some are not related to bisexuality. They can be fun or serious, formal or informal. Email workshops@bicon2008.org.uk to discuss any workshop ideas that you may have.
All workshops are run by volunteers, usually BiCon attenders. We need people to volunteer workshops, suggestions and ideas to help make them happen.
If you would like to volunteer to run a workshop please email workshops@bicon2008.org.uk. It's never too soon to volunteer to run workshops at BiCon.
