Find out more at our dedicated microsite: www.britishscienceweek.org. Anyone can organise an event or activity, and the British Science Association helps organisers plan by providing free online activity packs and support resources for promoting the Week on social media. We welcome and support any type of organiser, from schools to community groups, and from local businesses to large national cultural institutions. The resulting programme of events is a hugely varied and eclectic mix. Funding opportunities for British Science WeekThe British Science Association hands out hundreds of grants every year to schools and community groups to create fun and engaging events for groups who are underrepresented in STEM. British Science Week 2022 saw more than 300 grants handed out to schools and community groups across the United Kingdom to help engage people in science like never before with our fantastic 'Innovating for the future' theme. Activity packs Our free activity packs are filled with plenty of amazing ideas for you to run during British Science Week, whether that be in a classroom or at home. The packs are a great source of last-minute activities and ideas that require very few teaching resources to run within a classroom. In 2022, the early years, primary and secondary and community packs were collectively downloaded over 100,000 times. You can check out activity packs for 2021 and previous years here.
