The British Science Festival-Coming to Brum

Heyy, I know it's been nearly a year since my last post but Uni work has been hectic as always. Managed to get the grades I needed so I am officially on the MSci course, meaning an extra year of university and work (yay).

I am off to the training day for the British Science Festival as I have been given the opportunity to work there as a Festival Assistant (more to follow when I find out my official role).  Fortunately this year the festival in based in Birmingham with a lot of events in the actual University of Birmingham, which is very convenient for me :-) .

The festival is a great example of scientific engagement and communication with the public.  It features talks, workshops and exhibitions by real scientists who want to show you how diverse and exciting science can really be.

Many of the events are free, or carry a nominal fee and carry right on in to the evening so even busy working people still have an opportunity to attend.

It is running from 6-11 September 2014 and is well worth a look.  More information about what's on and who is attending can be found on the website: http://www.britishscienceassociation.org/british-science-festival
