      Hello game393end,

      I would like to use some part of the prize money to sponsor school trips to a local science centre for students in a rural school in India.
      And some part for to buy things needed for a science activity for school students in UK. This experience will help me develop skills to be a good science communicator.

      I think I should win the 500 pounds because I have worked with school aged pupils a lot. Their experience of science in late primary and early secondary school can be a deciding factor for whether they love or hate science. I want to use this money to develop new games and tools to make the science in my field of research accessible to as many students as possible. Even those who live on Scottish isles that are too far for me to travel to! Hopefully, with these activities you would be as amazed as I was by what science can do!!
