Hi UKPN,
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a happy new year to you all!
For anybody keen to get involved with outreach this year (no experience required!) I have been contacted by two school recently both keen for a polar scientist to visit them. One is a year 6 class in Sheffield and another a year 2 class in Cheltenham. Both school are just looking for someone to come and share their knowledge and experiences of polar environments, scientific research and fieldwork. If you are interested in visiting either of these schools please reply to this email, if you have no experience in conducting school visits we can offer advice and the teachers will also help you and as always expenses will be covered. These are great opportunites to take part in outreach work and of course excellent practice in communicating your science to different audiences!
Best wishes
Maddie
