About the Camps

Aim
The aim of the Camps is to enable young people to explore the fun of chemistry and help motivate them into developing a long term interest in the subject and its applications in modern life.

Background
Since they began in 1998, when two Camps were held at the Universities of Birmingham and York, the number of Camps has increased dramatically in response to their success. During the summer of 2008 seventeen Camps have been hosted at universities throughout the UK. It is planned that with increased sponsorship the Camps will continue to expand to satisfy their increasingly popular demand.
