Hello from the Big Yellow Bear!!

On 17th & 18th November, Tim Richardson from the Physics Department, will be giving 24-hour back-to-back science lectures for Children in Need, in the Sheffield Science-a-Thon!

The lectures will vary hugely, from the basics of 'How Cool Things Work' to astronomy, aliens and even making ice-cream from liquid nitrogen!  We even have a lecture on Harry Potter - the science behind the magic! (Friday 1.00pm).

Not all lectures require a background in science, so there really is something for everyone!

Poor Tim will be lecturing for the WHOLE 24 hours so he needs YOUR support!

Price:

1 lecture £1.50

All-Access wrist band £4!

All of which goes straight to Children in Need!

We also have tea/coffee/goodies on sale (also for Children in Need) which have kindly been donated by EventWithUS - so you can munch away through the lectures!

As if all that wasn't enough, we will have a raffle with loads of cool prizes donated by local businesses, dancing fun, and cakes on the concourse, and I myself (Pudsey) will be making myself known to everyone!

No need to book in advance, just turn up on the day, have some fun and support Children in Need.
