Project hosts

We’re always looking for new partners to benefit from our scheme. Hosts provide one or more projects lasting between four to six weeks, during July and/or August.

What it means for you

Join an initiative which helps young people contribute to your organisation through real science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) project work and fresh thinking. Demonstrate your commitment to (STEM) education, develop skills through mentoring a young student, and spread knowledge of your organisation’s activities.
