School of Mathematics

Louise Crabtree
Widening Participation/Schools Liaison Officer

My remit is to encourage young people to continue their study of maths and science, in particular those who are currently under represented in Higher Education. Having previously worked in the Chemical industry for 10 years, I am keen for young people to understand the importance of maths and science in our lives and its everyday uses.

I am responsible for placing current maths, chemistry and physics undergraduates into local schools for the maths and science into schools accredited module, I also organise many of the outreach events within the Faculty, for example, the RSC Christmas lecture for schools, STEM days, Salters Colour Chemistry camp and I am part of the Leeds Festival of Science team.

Please contact me for further information on our outreach activity.
