Two of our dedicated Nikwax staff, Jon Nash (Environmental Specialist) and David Ellis (Product Development Chemist) have been running projects in local schools over the last year. Some pupils from our local Wadhurst school, Uplands School, came to see us and Jon talked to them about Nikwax the company, Health & Safety and Enviromental Management. David spoke about the make-up of our products and the science behind it. The intrepid two also gave talks at Haysbrook School and in Ticehurst and Flimwell as part of the Creative Partnership Scheme – a 10 week programme of teaching science in a creative, hands-on way using the outdoor environment. Here’s hoping Jon and David’s work sparks the interest of some future scientists or environmental management specialists !
