Members of the group have different life experiences and not necessarily come from a Science and Engineering background but we all share a common interest to learn more about the science and engineering around us.

We aim to hold an interesting lecture or visit once a month – depending on availability. The group regularly visits different places to find out the science and engineering processes involved.

Places we have visited include Hills Waste Solutions, Trowbridge sewage works, Dents glove factory, RSPCA Centre Bath, BoA Fire Station, Lackam Farm, Hinckley Point and The Royal Mint.

Lectures have included local geology, the science behind archaeology, the history of computers, Air Traffic Control over Britain and Saltford Mill.
