Yes! I'm proud to say that We won the Netmums Award for the best Children's Party!
Not only that but I'm humbled to say we've even received royal recognition, winning Her Majesty's Queen's Award for Enterprise!
Did I See You On Dragons' Den?
Yes, that was me, firing smoke rings at the Dragons and making slime in the Den!
Thankfully, I just about managed to keep my nerves under control (it was petrifying!) and the Dragons loved Sublime Science!
I walked out of the Den with two (incredible!) Dragons who've helped us go on to make science awesome for one million children!

Not only that but we even helped break a Guinness World Record by pitching in Richard Branson's 29 hour pitchathon!
I've dreamed of breaking a world record since I was 8 years old and 20-something years later we finally do it!
That's It For Awards, Surely!?!
Er, just one more!
