Subject: London SciComm Symposium - 15th June 2018

Hello!

In September 2015 we started the London SciComm Socials as a chance for science communicators* from across London to get together. In April 2016 we held our first Symposium, in May 2017 we built on that with our second event, and in June 2018 we’re doing it again. This time it’s bigger and better than ever!

(* We’ve met scientists, teachers, learned society staff, coordinators of public engagement in universities, TV presenters, marketers, writers, performers, comedians, press officers, scicomm students, bloggers, historians of science, museum folk and we want to meet even more people!)

On Friday 15th June we want to provide another chance for people across the sector to share their work and ideas, to identify themes that link us together, establish projects that combine our expertise and of course to network efficiently.

You can find out more about the event and book a place here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-scicomm-symposium-2018-tickets-45031721090

In contrast to many other science communication and public engagement conferences, tickets to our symposium are free, but to book a place, we ask people to donate at least £10 to charity. All the money we collect will go to Sands: Stillbirth and neonatal death charity.

You can find out more about past events here: www.londonsci.com<http://www.londonsci.com>

This year we also have some extra training sessions organised as part of the programme: https://londonscicomm.wordpress.com/scicomm-symposium-week/upcoming-events/

Please do join us if you can, and please tell anyone who you think would be interested.

Thank you,

Kimberley Freeman.
