Space Connections are organising a two day public engagement event in Bradford, themed “Space in the City”. Through a range of space and astronomy related activities including solar observation, Martian rovers, rocket building and the Space Bus, the visitors to Space and the City will be given information about all the educational space related activities that they can participate in as a next step along the lifelong learning ladder. This pilot event will lead on from the success of the ‘Lift Off Bradford!’ campaign and will be the start of a series of public engagement activities including open lectures and demonstrations as well as the launch of a family challenge.

Location: Bradford Centenary Square
Date: 1st and 2nd June 2010

If you would like to volunteer for this event, or would like more information, then please get in touch with Dave Wright (brohp2@aol.com), or Waheed Akram (waheed.akram@postgrad.manchester.ac.uk). The possibility of reimbursing travel is open to those who reply asap.
