Reading Science Week

We had a very successful weekend of activities at Dinton Pastures. Thanks to the British Science Association for providing the exhibition, logistics and refreshments.

We have some images and a short report, and here are some of the testimonials received via twitter.

“@ReadingAS Thanks for hosting such a great evening! We could not have been luckier with the weather.”

“@ReadingAS wonderful evening tonight, many thanks to the members who were very accommodating! Looking forward to coming next week.”
