Request for a Met Office Ambassador
Introduction
The Met Office has a wide range of enthusiastic and professional Ambassadors who are passionate about engaging with all types of people. We can provide talks, workshops and demonstrations, either virtually or in person, on a wide range of topics such as our expert meteorology, cutting-edge technology and world-leading science.
We aim to accommodate as many requests as possible, however there are occasions on which we must decline requests due to a range of factors, such as short notice or limited staff availability. Your request is more likely to be approved if we are given at least 8 weeks’ notice.
To request a Met Office Ambassador, please provide the following information. We aim to respond within 14 days. For further information, please contact
