Catalyst is an interactive science centre and museum devoted to chemistry and how the products of chemistry are used in everyday life.

Our key aim is to make science exciting and accessible to people of all ages and to inform them about science based industries and their role in our lives, past present and future.

Catalyst is a great action-packed family attraction with an excellent educational focus. Schools visit during term time to take advantage of our curriculum based education programme.

During school holidays everyone can take part in our special events and activities. We have something for all age groups and a friendly welcome is guaranteed!
