We had a fantastic day at the Portslade Science Fair last weekend! The event was a great success, with over 300 people visiting the Engineering and Informatics stand throughout the day. It was inspiring to see such enthusiasm from the community — curiosity, questions, and smiles :).
Our tent drew a lot of interest, thanks to the brilliant support from Dexter Shepherd and Paula Seidler from Informatics, and Benedict Fletcher from Engineering. Huge thanks to Amber Shepherd for coordination and also to our amazing group of volunteers from Engineering and Neuroscience, who truly brought science to life with activities like the robot hand and robot bug racing — a huge hit with the kids (and adults too!).
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this outreach event such a success. It’s always a privilege to connect with the community and share the excitement of STEM.
