Gary will be appearing at The Big Bang: UK Young Scientists & Engineers Fair on Thursday 10th and Friday 11th March on behalf of Wycombe Wanderers FC and The Football League, to present a workshop on the role of Science in Football.

Involving over 110 organisations from across the private, public and voluntary sectors, and reaching out to schools and students across the country, The Big Bang represents a true partnership of the UK’s science and engineering communities. The event is led by EngineeringUK in partnership with the British Science Association, the Institute of Physics, the Science Council, the Royal Academy of Engineering, and Young Engineers. The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, and the Department for Education both provide significant support along with a large number of sponsors from industry. Last year's Big Bang event in Manchester, drew over 22,000 people.

The Big Bang 2011 will take place at ICC London ExCeL from 10 – 12 March, when 25,000 people are expected to attend.  The headline shows will include Sky 1’s Brainiac Live!,  BBC’s Bang Goes the Theory, and The Lloyd’s Register Educational Trust’s Alphabeat show.  The Fair will also feature BBC’s Wallace & Gromit ‘World of Invention’ roadshow.
