Alice discovers her inner elf

Thanks to your donations, Alice was able to discover her inner elf, as she was coerced into dressing up as one of Santa's little helpers for our end-of-year funding drive. Each donor was allowed to vote for who they wanted to see in yellow tights, and an earlier attempt by Alice to convince sponsors not to vote for her backfired spectacularly, garnering her 75% of the ballots. Taking this landslide victory in her stride, Alice entertained small children and amused tourists as she posed for pictures in Piccadilly Circus. A big thank you to everyone who took part and made contributions - if you'd like to reward Alice for her fearless devotion to Sense About Science then please visit our donations page here.
