In recognition of the great value and impact of our volunteers, the BA has instituted the Sir Walter Bodmer Award for Volunteers. This annual award is made each June, and the winner is invited to receive their award at the Festival of Science Dinner. The patron of the award is Sir Walter Bodmer, a past Chair of the BA Council, and a founder of one of the biggest volunteering organisations in the UK (Imperial Cancer Research Fund).
