Joined in November to replace an outgoing administrator, part of a fluid team of 4 whose joint effort creates the Brighton Science Festival. My work covered all facets of the Festival, from production on the events themselves to Marketing, Social Media Management, Press Management, as well as managing a team of 79 volunteers across the festival myself.
I loved this opportunity and seeing children engaging in Science and, seeing the way in which children engaged in each of the shows and stalls at the two week festival whetted my appetite and made me realise this work, where people are engaged in learning, whether it be visual, scientific or in some cases theatrical, is what I want to promote.
Also, there were lots of explosions, and they are fun.
