Techniquest will be giving free tickets to children and families across South East Wales, to visit the science centre after receiving a funding boost.
The ScottishPower Foundation have awarded nineteen charities across England, Scotland and Wales a funding boost totalling almost £1.2 million. The funding will go towards projects that cover and raise awareness for a number of different issues, including the climate crisis and biodiversity.
Wales' largest science discovery centre, Techniquest in Cardiff Bay, is one of the charities receiving funding from the ScottishPower Foundation. Techniquest will provide free access to the centre, for 3000 people as well as tickets to view the Ocean Extravaganza project where they will learn about how to protect marine life from pollution as well as other under the sea topics. At the beginning of June, Techniquest will begin to email schools to apply for a free class visit, with the visit itself scheduled to take place in early Autumn.
