Doctor prescribes science

Visitors to Spalding Library were given a science lesson from Dr DNA on Monday (October 27).

The Anglian Water and Mad Science Community Show saw captivated kids blown with a leaf blower, watch explosions that can happen in pipes and discuss caves of fat.

It was carried out by Dr DNA herself aka Laura Bird.

The event was part of Green Libraries Week which the Victoria Street venue is taking part in over this half term period.

They’re also hosting a halloween costume and seed swap, where people can bring in either and pick up another costume or seed.
