British Science Week: Kick Start Grants
Are you excited to run events for British Science Week 2022 in your school, but need a helping hand?
With the support of UK Research and Innovation, the British Science Association are providing Kick Start Grants to help schools in challenging circumstances to organise their own activities and events during British Science Week.
The aim of the grants scheme is to engage children who might not otherwise choose to participate in science, and to promote cross-curricular learning.
All kinds of events and activities are eligible for support!
Types of grants

A grant of £300 for your school to run an activity during British Science Week.

A grant of £150 for students aged 10-19 at your school to organise and deliver an activity during British Science Week.
