Bristol Skeptics Society

Hello and welcome to Bristol Skeptics Society, a non-profit education and advocacy organisation dedicated to promoting science and critical thinking in Bristol, around the UK, and internationally. We are committed to combating misinformation, and pursuing a better, more compassionate world, through skeptical exploration and inquiry.

Bristol Skeptics Society hosts regular lectures and talks by academics from the world of science and skepticism, to share their unique research and insights. The goal is for every talk to delight and inspire, and help us understand our complex world a little better.

Founded in 2009, Bristol Skeptics Society has hosted hundreds of speakers over the years on a variety of skeptical and scientific topics, and supported local and national skeptical campaigns. We work closely with the Skeptics in the Pub movement, and our previous speakers include the likes of Simon Singh, David Nutt, Michael Marshall and Susan Blackmore.
