Space Rocket Project Reaching New Heights!
10 May 2016  

Congratulations from the Radio Lollipop Bristol Team to all of our friends at The University of the West of England (UWE) in the Space Exploration Society and Medical Science Society for their nomination in the Student Union National Societies Awards for the Best Community Project for the Space Rocket Project!

The project involved a series of workshops on Wednesday evenings during Radio Lollipop sessions which were run by our volunteers and UWE students for the children at The Bristol Royal Hospital for Children to build and decorate Radio Lollipop Space Rockets to be launched into space!

The workshops were very successful and lots of glittery fun!

The first rocket launch took place in April and there is footage of the launch on the Radio Lollipop Facebook Page.

The second launch sadly had to be postponed due to bad weather.  Further arrangements are to be confirmed.

Good luck to the UWE team with their award nomination!
