Final chance to get involved in British Science Week

Sunday 16 March, is the last day of British Science Week 2025.

If you live in the Derbyshire or Leicestershire area, pop along to the open day being held by South Derbyshire and Ashby Woulds Amateur Radio Group.

The group is hosting the final day of its family friendly open weekend. Members will be showcasing all that amateur radio has to offer from kit building to operating under supervision. Details of the event can be found on the “Events happening near you” section of the RSGB British Science Week web pages.

There is also still time to get involved with the official RSGB British Science Week activity, which is featured in the British Science Week Community Activity Pack. This can be done at home on DMR or any other radio.

If you’ve been involved in amateur radio activities as part of the annual celebration of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, the Society would love to hear from you. Whether you’ve run an event at your local club, set up and operated a radio station in a school, or introduced the hobby to a community group, get in touch. Please send your reports, with separate high-resolution photographs, to comms@rsgb.org.uk by 18 April.

The RSGB would like to thank everyone who has contributed ideas and resources, sharing your passion and expertise with others.

It is also welcoming feedback about the British Science Week campaign. Let the RSGB know what worked well, what you learnt, and how the Society could develop its activities for next year. Please email the RSGB British Science Week Coordinator Ian Neal, M0KEO at bsw@rsgb.org.uk to share your thoughts.
