understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

Some 40 years ago I inherited a water colour of a view in Bristol which has hung on our wall ever since. My daughter qualified as an accountant in Bristol and I helped her find a flat in Bristol where she lived for three years. During her residence at the flat she happened to notice that the Bristol picture mentioned her road and on examination it became clear that her flat was right in the middle of the picture having been either re built or refurbished. We have taken an up to date picture from the spot where the artist must have sat probably more than 60 years ago.
