The Prizegiving at Bletchley Park

On May 7th 2004 there will be a Prizegiving ceremony at Bletchley Park to celebrate the achievements of all the particpants in this year's National Cipher Challenge. Prizes will be awarded by our sponsors from IBM UK and GCHQ. Our special guest for the afternoon is Clifford Cocks celebrated UK cryptologist and discoverer of what came to be known as RSA encryption, the most well known public key cryptographic system. We are delighted to announce that there will be a lecture by Claire Ellis, formerly director of Simon Singh's school Enigma project and now education director at Bletchley. The programme of events will begin at 1.45pm and run until approximately 5pm and will include an opportunity to tour the museum. Last year's event was a lot of fun and we hope as many of you as possible can make it. The event is generously sponsored by Bletchley Park, and a limited number of FREE tickets for the afternoon will be available to schools or individuals appearing on the Cipher Challenge Hall of Fame. These are available on application, first come first served, using the online application form which may be found at /registration/tickets
