University student wishing to volunteer at events. I am studying biology but keen to help with STEM events in any field. Flexible with dates and times.
I am a PhD candidate in experimental condensed matter physics at the University of Surrey’s Advanced Technology Institute, working within the Photonics and Quantum Sciences group in the physics department. My PhD research focuses on semiconductor spintronics for quantum technology applications. Alongside my academic research, I frequently engage in other activities such as higher education teaching and science communication. I am a STEM Ambassador and a confident speaker.
Hello! We are Go Fly Your Kite and we run STEM Kite Workshops all over the UK and Ireland. Our kite workshop STEM topics are Flight, Space & Engineering. Age range for our workshops are 8-11 years of age. Our workshops are in line with the National Curriculum . What flies? How do things fly? What do things that fly need? Gravity, aerodynamics, simple experiments, videos, building and flying kites! Fun through learning. Trace Colour Build and fly https://goflyourkite.com
Currently I'm mostly limited to online but have done some pretty engaging online workshops and talks with good interactions. Pet topics: colour measurement (because that's what I professionally did for many years); international system of units (SI) definitions and realisation; electronic music instruments (hobby); running fun measurement workshops (e.g. making pendulums); liquid nitrogen or water demo talks. As film-maker I'm happy to be involved in film related activities.
Rick is happy to work with event planners to design an activity, workshop, engagement project, presentation, training event, debate, quiz, conference or meeting, one-off or series
We offer exciting, engaging and entertaining science shows and workshops for all occasions and audiences. Available in person or on-line, and adapted to meet your needs. So, if you want our 45 minute show but only have 30 minutes available, we’ll tailor it to suit you.
London's Air Ambulance Charity can offer a speaker to talk about the life saving service we provide for the people of London. We offer this at no charge but if you are able to make a donation to the charity that would be appreciated.
I am a storyteller and qualified early years teacher. I developed my interest in science through photography and later by studying the northern lights. Now settled back in the Lake District, I have written a science story book aimed at 5 to 8 year olds. Sylwedyth is a local stone-age girl who questions her tribe's sayings. She becomes a scientist and creates Britain's first stone circle. The book has science explanations for KS1 and a bonus story about inventions set in the court of Louis XIV.
I'm a retired professional geologist offering talks on many geological and earthscience topics. Since retiring I've been an active 'STEM Ambassador', giving talks to over 2500 children at various primary and secondary schools, usually bringing a good selection of rocks and fossils. I also give public/community talks. Although I'm based in Surrey/Kent, I often visit other areas in England so may be able to offer talks elsewhere.
Colchester Zoo can offer a range of educational sessions, workshops, and presentations on a wide range of topics including real world applications of STEM (including maths and psychology), and careers in STEM with a focus on the world of animal care and conservation.

Offering subsidised planetarium visits across the UK, with free gift boxes to all teachers booking in 2023 For more information on our award-winning curriculum linked space lessons, please contact me - Free lesson plans - Free worksheets - Free meteorite handling - Free gift box to teacher booking
I am a linguist, science communicator and comedian who occasionally moonlights as a lecturer at the University of Liverpool. With a PhD in evolutionary linguistics and an obsession with all things sci-fi, her favourite thing to think about is how to communicate with aliens. She has performed well-received, science-themed comedy shows across the UK, including at the British Science Festival and TEDx, and has appeared on BBC Radio 4’s Stranger than Sci-Fi and Word of Mouth.
I'm a mature Astrophysics student and run my blog 'The Average Scientist' which is aimed at casual interest readers. From The Average Scientist blog grew 'TAS Talks'. These are bitesize presentations of topics such as 'The size and scale of the Universe', 'Gravity', 'The scientific search for extra-terrestrial intelligence' plus lots of others. They can be tailored for primary school children or adults and are designed specifically to stimulate interest, questions and discussion.
I run the UK's largest network of multi-purpose planetariums and learning STEM Domes, covering an impressive 15 subjects, in 10 languages and fully accessible to all SEND needs For BSW 2023, we are part funding the visits to schools with free travel anywhere in the UK, unlimited shows and programs, and free resources for schools and teachers. Please visit us online to find out more, and apply for a part funded visit by the end of January 2023 www.immersive-experiences.co.uk
