OUR EVENTS
Another Way Event to Inspire Girls into STEM Careers
Our inaugural STEM event was held in February 2026 to mark National Science and Engineering day. It inspired young girls in year 9 and 10 to consider a STEM career through showcasing the diversity of careers and pathways for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. This included role model speakers, coaching workshops and an exhibition of STEM organisations and colleges.
