The West Yorkshire branch is primarily based in Leeds and recently has 'grown' a twig in Bradford that is a legacy from the British Science Festival 2011 in Bradford.

We are always keen for volunteers from any background, so if you're interested, please get in touch!

National Science & Engineering Week 2012

As part of University wide events for NSEW 2012 the West Yorkshire Branch invited A-level and GCSE pupils from local schools and colleges to come and learn more about drugs in sport. Students were given the chance to carry out a mock drugs test and this was followed by a debate on the ethics of the use of drugs and gene doping in sport. This was funded by the Wellcome Trust.
