You will host a Year 12 student during the summer holidays in support of our Research STEM programme. Providing a 2 week on-site, hybrid or virtual research/investigation project.

Our programme simply wouldn’t be possible without the unwavering commitment of our student mentors and partner organisations. Across the East of England and London, Year 12 students depend on your guidance and enthusiasm to explore the exciting world of STEM. Your dedication goes far beyond volunteering—it fuels curiosity, builds confidence, and opens doors to new opportunities. By sharing your expert knowledge, practical skills, and real-world experience, you help shape the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators. Most importantly, your encouragement and passion inspire young minds to imagine their own futures in STEM and to believe that they, too, can make a difference.
