That is easy for me to answer – if I had double the money I would have double the number of students come to the lab over the summer for lab placements. I think it is really a great thing that students in secondary school get work experience in labs because it can give you a real idea of what it may be like to be a scientist. In the past we have found it to be a really positive experience for the students (I enjoy it too).
More money would allow the project to become more ambitious. I could get more volunteers and would be able to promote it better. I would also be able to do more practical things like giving it its own website rather than relying on a charity to host it for me.
