For almost a decade, Peterborough STEM Festival has been providing a free day of inspiration and education for children and families throughout the area. But due to a funding shortfall, the 2025 event is at risk.
We need to find an additional commitment of £2,000 by Friday, September 2026... 1/2

Peterborough STEM Festival needs your help

Had a great time at the @dpipboro.bsky.social games-themed meetup last night. It was weird to share my sim racing hobby rather than a marketing talk, but hopefully how it blends real and virtual was interesting for those not interested in motorsport

Did my first talk at @dpipboro.bsky.social for quite a while, and it seemed to go well. Aimed for 40 minutes, ended up over an hour with lots of interesting questions at the end...

And it's such a great opportunity if you're at all nervous about presenting - everyone is always kind and welcoming.
