Hello UKPN!
The UKPN festivals team are excited to announce that the first UKPN science festival event of the new academic year will be happening on Saturday 29th November, as part of our ongoing collaboration with the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London.
We are looking for volunteers to help put on the event, including:
- Setting up and running fun and engaging science-themed activities and experiments
- A couple of short talks (~15 mins) on life as a polar researcher
- Being on hand to chat to visitors and answer questions about polar science
This will be a great chance to engage a diverse audience of families and young children and potentially inspire the next generation of polar scientists!
No experience needed - all we ask is your commitment and enthusiasm. 😊
Food and drink will be provided on the day, along with refunds for travel and accommodation. For more info, and to express interest, see the form at: https://forms.gle/tbg9w7bMsmPHcqco9. Please fill out the form by the 30th of September.
If you are unable to travel to London for this event, do not fear! There will be future events at different locations across the country that you can get involved in.
Please contact us at festivals@polarnetwork.org if you have any questions.
Best wishes,
Phoebe & Edmund
