Introduction

The 2021 LSST:UK All hands meeting will be virtual, with 3 half-days. The emphasis is on inclusivity, communication and increasing involvement. The invited talks will be relatively short (15mins), and we will have breakout parallel sessions to facilitate discussions. 

We have a number of ways that you can participate actively - 5, 10, or 15min speaker slots, or attending the parallel discussion sessions. These will be relatively informal, aimed at open discussion and broad involvement.
