Definitely give it a go, you won’t regret it! If, like me, you’re unsure if you have enough experience, I’d say try and think back to yourself at the start of your first sci comms job, and think about how much knowledge you’ve gained since then… it’s just lovely knowing that you have played a small part in helping somebody else to succeed.
