Sugar might seem simple, but when it’s turned into a fine dust it behaves very differently. In this taster session, you’ll explore how tiny particles can react much faster than larger ones, why surface area matters, and how this links to the surprising risks found in sugar factories. You’ll uncover the science behind fast reactions — and see how something as everyday as sugar can become unexpectedly reactive.

We're so pleased you'll be joining us!

Chemistry Teacher

Lorna studied Chemistry (MChem) at the University of Sheffield before completing her PGCE at the University of Cambridge. She has been teaching Science for over twenty years across both the state and independent sectors and has led a Science department as Head of Science. She also holds a Master’s in Education and has worked internationally in Kazakhstan, helping to develop teacher‑training programmes. This breadth of experience has shaped her clear, student‑centred approach to teaching. Outside the classroom, Lorna enjoys tending her allotment, exploring in her camper van, and open‑water swimming. She’s creative and always trying out new crafts, and she loves heading to festivals with friends — especially those with great music, good food, and a great atmosphere.
