We are always looking for opportunities to share these training resources. If you think the models could be useful for your work with students, professional groups or communities then please contact us to discuss how we could share our models or come to you to deliver a demonstration. Alternatively, if you would like to use these physical models to support training that you deliver, they are available to hire.
