Funding our future means commercial enterprise, philanthropy and sustainable trading.

The Hospice of St Francis is a charity with a powerful history and has provided outstanding hospice care for over 45 years. Rated ‘Outstanding’ by the CQC since 2016, The Hospice helps 2,000 local people and their families in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, to live their lives well.

About Us

STEM Learning’s vision is ‘improving lives through STEM education’ by empowering young people with the skills and knowledge to thrive through effective teaching and learning. To achieve this, STEM Learning provides a range of support which includes subject-specific professional development for teachers and other educators, quality assured resources, a suite of enhancement and enrichment activities and the inspiring STEM Ambassador programme showcasing the incredible careers and opportunities in STEM.

The Big Picture

The UK is facing a critical challenge in developing the pipeline of skills required for future STEM-related occupations and industries. To remain competitive on a global scale, it’s essential to inspire more young people to engage with STEM subjects at school, explore the exciting careers available, and pursue STEM pathways through education and beyond.

The STEM Ambassadors programme plays a pivotal role in addressing this challenge. As the UK’s largest STEM volunteering initiative, it connects nearly 26,000 individuals from over 5,000 employers with teachers and young people across the country. These volunteers share their enthusiasm and expertise, bringing STEM to life and demonstrating the transformative potential of STEM education and careers.

At STEM Learning, we recognise that positive, long-term partnerships are key to making this vision a reality. By working collaboratively with businesses, professional institutions and other organisations, we maximize the impact of our work and ensure mutual benefits for everyone involved.

By joining us, you’ll play a vital part in ensuring the STEM Ambassadors programme continues to inspire and empower the next generation, equipping them with the skills and motivation to shape the future.
