This funding round, many organisations are receiving their first grant from Wolfson. From a planetarium housed in an old Victorian reservoir Sherwood Observatory, to the restoration of the much-loved Folkestone The Folkestone Leas Lift, we're proud to be supporting transformative projects.


Really exciting introduction and discussions with Nottinghamshire Lieutenancy and Sherwood Observatory very own Dr Steve ahead of breaking ground for the new planetarium #STEM 🚀🪐💫


IT’S OFFICIAL! The skies held their rain off for us and we have been able to do our official ground breaking ceremony. Great to have two of the founders with us, Nottinghamshire Lieutenancy and amazing partners and supporters who all helped make it happen


An exciting day for our recent grant-holders Sherwood Observatory , who have broken ground on their project to transform a Victorian subterranean reservoir into a planetarium & science discovery centre🚀 Via Nottingham Post nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…



An out of this world experience is on the cards for visitors at Sherwood Observatory in #SuttoninAshfield later this year as work on their £6M Planetarium & Visitors Centre takes shape. Thanks to G F Tomlinson for letting me explore their progress. Can't wait to revisit. #Nottinghamshire

Today we had a visit from the Breakfast Show team at BBC Nottingham to discuss the progress of the new Science Discovery Centre at Sherwood Observatory. If you missed it, you can listen again here (from 1:51:50) ow.ly/S5lb50QHO5Z #construction #Nottinghamshire


Year 5 had a fantastic morning with Sherwood Observatory at the Mansfield Museum, where they expanded on their knowledge of space. The children took part in some great activities and we also saw the exciting plans that they have for the future! Thank you for a fantastic morning.


This week is #NCW2024 &as part of our commitment to encourage and support #construction careers across our projects, today, we welcomed Level 1 #Bricklaying students from Vision West Nottinghamshire College to the Sherwood Observatory site to gain first hand knowledge and experience from our site team.


It was great to visit the site at the Sherwood Observatory Discovery Centre yesterday. We're working with Mansfield & Sutton Astronomical Society, G F Tomlinson, SCAPE, Anotherkind Architects, HSP Consulting, rsacosmos & ST Engineering! #TeamSCAPE


Excited to see how things are coming along with the new planetarium at Sherwood Observatory.


An incredible start to the week for our team at Sherwood Observatory, who have achieved an amazing 44/45 Considerate Constructors Scheme Score on their first site audit! Well done to all involved - it's fantastic to see the team's efforts recognised. 🌟👏 #ConsiderateConstructorsScheme SCAPE



Delighted to get up to the top of the Planetarium dome at Sherwood Observatory before it gets fully cladded. What a view! Go Stargazing UK Astronomy only 6 months to go!


This week we were delighted to welcome Year 9 & Year 10 students from Nottingham Free School to site Sherwood Observatory to take part in a #JustImagineWorkingHere event. The students took a tour of this site & then took part in activity to build a 3D model of the project. Well done to all!


Off to the Mansfield and Sutton Astronomical Society Sherwood Observatory tonight to give my talk on "A day on each planet".
