Give it away to the student chemical society here at Heriot-Watt to encourage them to undertake public engagement activities.

I would like to organise a 2 day workshop with experiments based on natural products chemistry, like extracting chlorophyll from fresh spinach

I will make a unique interactive chemistry website for students.
Students can ask questions, can participate in games, quiz etc. Students can explain chemistry in their own way. Chemistry in our daily life (starting from tooth paste to the detergent; baking soda to pain-killer, many more) will be the main part of the website. It will make awareness among kids what can be good/safe to use and what could be avoided. It will be primarily based on Scotland; but in future can be extended to wider populations across UK. Feedbacks will be received from teachers and parents and the website will be improved/updated regularly. I have previously made a website (https://ukpujaparikrama.wixsite.com/2018) for a traditional festival, that connected all Indian bengalis in UK. From my previous experience I believe an interactive chemistry website will be really interesting to Kids.

Hey! I want to run an art workshop for a group of local school students – tell them a bit about the day to day life of a scientist and see how they can interpret that to make some interesting images! There’s lots of weird and wacky looking kit hanging around a chemistry lab! So, I’m sure we could generate some amazing looking stuff. Hopefully it would be a fun and novelty way to learn about some science.
