Science Centres Resilience Meetings
All major UK visitor attractions, science centres and museums have all been considering, planning and taking action for what the year may hold in relation to Coronavirus. It continues to be a fast moving topic and the guidance changes rapidly.
To support members, ASDC continues to host bi-weekly meetings with the membership and wider sector. These have been newly named Science Centre Resilience Calls and are held via Zoom. Registration is required in advance to receive the agenda, delegate list and zoom link.
Each meeting has a new focus for the discussion and guest speakers are invited to present on that topic. Topics for discussion include re-opening plans, income modelling, impacts and information on staffing, the furlough scheme and changes, financial planning, lobbying for funding, and many more.
Please email Cait Campbell (cait.campbell@sciencecentres.org.uk) if there is a topic you would like to discuss
