Are you worried that the public ignore research?  Or concerned that not enough young people pursue research careers?  The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has a range of funding available to help you make a difference.

In 2008 and 2009, the British Science Association ran a series of workshops were for scientists who currently hold, or plan to apply for, one of the public engagement awards available to EPSRC-funded scientists.  These include the Partnerships for Public Engagement (PPE) awards, Senior Media Fellowships and the Public Communications Training fund.

• Find out more about the grants available
• Get tips on making your application
• Meet other grant holders and be inspired by what they do

We are looking to run another series of workshops in 2009/10 when the Partnerships for Public Engagement scheme is relaunched. This page will be updated once further workshops are confirmed.
