For students, researchers and staff - our volunteers help deliver hands-on science and engineering activities at schools, community events and major science festivals across Scotland and the UK. Opportunities can range from a few hours at a local school to large public events and festivals. In 2026 our volunteers travelled with us to Stornoway for the Hebridean Science Festival!
