About

Joan was dedicated to inspiring young people to explore, study & develop a lifelong love of science and technology. Her deep-rooted commitment to equality & her belief that every child deserved a fighting chance made her an exceptional champion of Edinburgh Science's learning programmes. She believed that learning should help empower young people to face whatever the world might throw at them & be great fun in the process. At Edinburgh Science she reached over half a million young people, changed the lives of many through her passion for sharing knowledge, championing the underdog & flying the flag for woment in science.

Her sudden death has left many shocked & wanting to find a way to honour & mark both her spirit & legacy.
