After BWO in July 2004, some of the taskforce went to London to take part in Soul in the City.
Now that BWO was running in two regions, instead of one big taskforce organising everything, there would be a Regional Taskforce (RTF) in each region and a Citywide Coordinating Team (CCT) who did more of the long-term planning and anything that was best done for both regions at once. The CCT had many of those who were on the one taskforce in earlier years.
After seven BWOs, coming every six months and with the scale increasing, it was time to slow down and the event was not held in summer 2005.
Both regions opted for only one event timeslot per day (both weeks in 2004 had seen a day or more with two). This pattern remained for the most part for most regions.
