The Salters’ Institute of Industrial Chemistry is the flagship charity of the Salters’ Company and was founded to re-establish the Company’s former connection with the chemical industry. The Salters’ Chemistry Club’s objectives and work form part of the Institute’s goal to promote the appreciation of chemistry and related sciences among the young, and to encourage careers in the teaching of chemistry and in the UK chemical and allied industries.

The Salters' Chemistry Club
The Salters’ Chemistry Club’s main objective is to encourage the formation of school chemistry clubs and promote university-based regional events to make chemistry more relevant, exciting and fun for 11 to 14 year old pupils. The school clubs give young people the chance to experiment with hands-on chemistry where there may be limited opportunities within the curriculum. Clubs can also provide a focus for working with local science-based companies and universities. Indeed, a further aim of the Salters’ Chemistry Club is to encourage the development of long-term links between schools, universities and industrial companies.
