The second Hebridean science festival will take place from 17 – 19 March.  After a very successful festival last year, this year’s event aims to be even bigger and better.  There will be workshops and talks run by groups and individuals from all over the country, aimed at both adults and children.

The festival is organised by ESTEEM, a voluntary group with the aim of inspiring the next generation of scientists, engineers, technologists and mathematicians from the Western Isles.  The main theme of the festival is renewable energy, but there will be activities covering a wide range of subjects.
