Denman College (of the WI) ran courses including one by Sue Pringle of Bristol Uni in the 1990's. Copus will have details too as they were involved I think best wishes Tristram -----Original Message----- From: Dave Breen To: [log in to unmask] Sent: 13/05/2005 09:59 Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Science Outreach HI Liz I'm not sure if you know but we do a Microwave show for outside groups. The audience is often WI groups or similar, with the majority of those being over 50. We will probably be doing one within the next month or so if you would like to tag along I'm sure that it could be arranged. If you need to have a chat just give us a ring. This tends to be one offs and not a series.
