Member influence celebrated as 2026 RSS Members Week commences

Today marks the start of RSS Members Week 2026, and this year we are celebrating all the ways that members of the Society have a positive impact on the world of statistics and beyond, as well as showcasing how we as a Society are shaped by our members.

We will be kicking things off with the New Fellows Event this evening followed tomorrow afternoon by Influencing Change: From Volunteering to Policymaking tomorrow at 1PM. There are events happening throughout the week, and you can find out more from the full programme.

We are thrilled to celebrate the many ways our amazing members impact both us and society as a whole throughout the week, but first we thought it appropriate to let RSS fellows take centre stage. The video below, filmed at the RSS International Conference this year, sees members from across the society answer the question of fhow their membership has given them opportunities to use their expertise and make a difference beyond their day-to-day work.

We hope you enjoy it and look forward to seeing you at an event this week!
