Neal Robinson Science Award
The Neal Robinson Science Award is conferred annually in memory of Neal Robinson, the founder of Robinson's Chemists. It was previously referred to as the 'Neal Robinson Memorial Prize'. It is granted to local students who have excelled in science, and who are progressing to further education.
The Boston Lions are responsible for running the charity-registered trust, and a separate awards ceremony (in addition to Prize Giving) takes place at the Boston Lions club.
Neal Robinson Memorial Prize
In 1983 at least the Neal Robinson Memorial Prize seems to have been awarded to Tim Sylvester on the basis of having the fourth best set of A Level results. The student with the best A Level results received the Parry Gold Medal and those with the second and third best received the Parry Prize. It was certainly not awarded for excellence in science that year since Tim was not studying any science subjects at A Level.
