Social Media

Welcome to the ABSW social channels - your quickest way to stay up to date with the Young Science Writer Award 2026 and the wider work of the Association of British Science Writers. ABSW is a UK community of science writers, journalists, and communicators, so you’ll also see posts about events, opportunities, and science storytelling beyond YSWA. We’ll signpost YSWA content clearly (look for #YSWA26) so pupils, parents, and educators can find what they need.

So, use #YSWA26 (and #ScienceWriting) when you post - especially if you are drafting, researching, or celebrating a submission so we can find and share your updates. Don't forget to tag us @ABSW!
