Short answer
✕Cannot pay for a workshop
Dates not confirmedNo open round confirmed. Check the funder's page for dates.
This is a free science show and CPD day delivered by the Royal Institution's own presenters, not a cash grant, so a school cannot use it to pay Hyett or any other external provider. It is a free alternative to a bought-in workshop rather than a funding route.
