The annual Sidmouth Science Festival relies on the support of generous sponsorship, partnerships and public donations. This year we are pleased to have been accepted onto Tesco’s Stronger Starts programme which means that shoppers in local stores can show their support for the festival by voting for us, leading to a donation from Tesco. Their scheme is available to community groups and charities looking to fund local projects that bring benefits to communities.
In the Sidmouth and Seaton branches, from now until the end of March, you can use your blue tokens to indicate your preference for three causes including our events. This year’s festival runs from 10 to 19 October and aims to make science accessible to people of all ages through a range of activities, experiences and talks which are mostly free of charge.
