[Russell Group @RussellGroup]

Along with @sciencecampaign, @PhysicsNews &
@RoySocChem, we've written to @10DowningStreet
and @vonderleyen @EU_Commission to highlight the importance of R&D collaboration in the UK's future relationship with the EU. https://t.co/6lsTNcFVN6

Read our joint letter with @RAEngNews in today's @FT regarding the uptick in18 year-olds applying for UK engineering degrees. But as the letter highlights there is still much to do.

Some 70% would support a proposal for a new R&D lab being built on their nearest high street🏢(Oct 23 data)

The public also talk about R&D bringing benefits to the local economy, more well-paid jobs, and new education opportunities🎓(Jul 22 & Feb 23 data)

[CaSE @sciencecampaign]

Our public opinion polling shows the appetite for R&D to have a bigger role in supporting communities across the UK.

Some 67% would like to see more R&D carried out in their local area. 📍

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

I want people to be proud of where they live.

Today we've announced £1.5 billion of funding to empower communities to build thriving high streets, parks, youth clubs, libraries, and cultural venues.

Supporting local growth.

Breathing life back into your neighbourhood.

[Research Fortnight @ResFortnight]

Government missions require long-term R&D plan, says @sciencecampaign.

[Martin Smith @martinrsmith]

Welcome’s submission to the UK Spending Review:

📈 Increase R&D intensity - invest £22bn in R&D in 2026/27 and set a longer-term ambition to become the most R&D intensive G7 economy

🏫 Fix the funding environment for UK universities to support their financial sustainability

[CaSE @sciencecampaign]

Skilled immigration is a topic of vital importance for UK R&D, and an area we will continue to advocate in on behalf of our membership to achieve positive change.

https://t.co/z8sGOlq97K

[CaSE @sciencecampaign]

We agree fully with the conclusions of the @LordsSTCom detailed in this letter.

As we set out in our 2024 Immigration Briefing, the UK needs a competitive immigration policy that attracts international R&D talent in order to meet its ambitions for a research-intensive economy.

[Lords Science & Technology Committee @LordsSTCom]

The outgoing Chair of the Science and Technology Committee, Baroness Brown, has written on behalf of the Committee to the Home Secretary, Rt Hon Yvette Cooper MP, concerning the UK’s immigration and visa policies for STEM talent.
