Local Activities
Einstein Year around the country.
During Einstein Year local organisers put on over 500 activities around the UK and Ireland. Ranging from water rocket days and sky-watching evenings to poetry compositions and art installations, these activities gave hundreds of thousands of young people the opportunity to experience physics as never before.
The Institute of Physics supported 48 activities through the Einstein Year grant scheme and the Institute's regional branches supported many more. In 2006 there will be a new grant scheme enabling even more local activities to take place.
