Widening Participation
We want everyone to be able to experience the wonder of physics. Whether it’s a tasty demo on the physics of ice cream, trying your hand at quantum computing or a trip to our annual Festival of Physics, our outreach programme has something for everyone.

Festival of physics
Our free annual family festival ran in collaboration with the Institute of Physics celebrates all things physics. Held at our HH Wills Laboratory here in Bristol the day is packed with talks, fun experiments and much more.
Physics In A Box
To accompany our Physics in the Box primary resource, we have created a video to inspire students and take them on a journey from the micro to the macro, meeting Physicists at Bristol, finding out what they do and exploring the impact that Physics has on their everyday lives. It is a fantastic resource to share with students of any age. If you are interesting in being part of the scheme, please email science-outreach@bristol.ac.uk.
