Chemistry Society
ChemSoc provides a break from the academic pressures of Chemistry. We provide events to cater for all needs and aim to bring Chemists of all ages together in having a good time. In order to do this we participate in a number of social activities, sports and outreach activities to encourage mass participation and provide a better experience for chemists as a whole; creating a bridge between the school and the students.
