      “As a child, I remember visiting Techniquest and being utterly mesmerised by the world it seemed to open up to me. I’m convinced it played a part in shaping my own path, eventually leading me to study chemistry at the University of Bath.”

      — Dan O’Toole, Chair of the Techniquest Board

      “Techniquest is one of those places that you can’t help coming away inspired in some form or another. I never thought I would end up working in a science centre, but after a few visits to Techniquest as a child, it definitely solidified my aspiration to become an educator!”

      “I was one of Techniquest’s biggest fans growing up. The experiences I had here inspired my passion for engaging visitors and creating memorable moments throughout my career, so it’s incredibly special to now be back helping inspire future generations.”
