Science is all around us at the moment, from nature documentaries to the Spacex launch and everything in between.

With the coronavirus crisis we've seen the importance science plays in our everyday lives, and the pandemic has highlighted the importance of researchers working to find cures to deadly disease and illness.

In a 2015 Public Attitudes Survey found 91% said that young people's interest in science would be crucial to the future.
