Each of the national and regional Branches arranges for its members a series of scientific lectures and one or more visits to places of scientific and technical or general interest. In addition they arrange talks and demonstrations for school pupils and one social event, usually a dinner to which members' spouses are invited.

The lecture meetings and visits the Branches have link with local schools, to encourage pupils and to support teachers of physics. Several Branches give annual prizes as well.

SciCast Physics is a mini-science-movie-making competition and the challenge is to produce a film of less than two and a half minutes that explains a principle of physics in an entertaining way to non-scientists. More information on the competition can be found here.
