About 欧美AV

The Southwest and Central Wales Local Section covers a wide area from Presteigne in the east, to Fishguard in the west, and Caersws in the north. Its administrative centre is based in the Chemistry Department of the University of Wales Swansea.

Our Section is particularly active in liaison with schools in the area and with the University Student Chemical Society. It runs a very successful Chemical Olympiad competition for teams from secondary schools and provides hands-on demonstration talks for primary schools. A further function is as a meeting place for its many retired members in the South Wales "Riviera" and a provider of social meetings and events for its members. 

Our history

The Section was founded in November 1918 as the South Wales Branch of the Institute of Chemistry and held its early meetings at the Mackworth Hotel in Swansea. The branch's membership covered the whole of South Wales and the annual subscription for a Fellow at the time was the princely sum of £2 2s 0d.

With the amalgamation of the RIC and the CS in 1971, the Branch became the South Wales West Local Section. In 2024 the the South Wales West Local Section was renamed as Southwest and Central Wales Local Section to reflect its expanded geographical area.
