A free, friendly festival of knowledge for everyone

Citizen science covers inventions, co-production, discoveries, and technology made by citizens, or useful for society . The Citizen Science Fair is run entirely by local volunteers. We aim to inspire, share inventions and skills, and encourage learning & participation in Newham.
