Not to be confused with the YPLC above, the CIE Award is open for entries, deadline for a 500 word deadline is May 1st.  Poster attached, and rules available from me on request.  There is no age limit for this competition, so please encourage anyone whom you think might be interested.

 

Visit to William Lane Foundry on May 14th and 21st (both Wednesdays).  Please let me know if you would be interested in a visit to this foundry, which started in 1862, and is 2 years older than the CIE!  Numbers are restricted to 12 per visit, so I'm trying to assess how many visits we would need.  I've gone for 2 initially.  Look at --> http://www.williamlane.co.uk/
