Hi Jana,

If you are interested in working with children and young people, I'd recommend registering as a STEM Ambassador. They will send you on a local induction course (useful for starting to think about how to use your specific experience & skills), plus details of local networking events and lots of short-term volunteering opportunities in your area. It's great way to get started.

Very best
Isabel

Dear Jana,
 
I've recently been improving the BIG STEM Communicators Network website content and we have some pages on how to get started, training courses, a list of science festivals and centres etc. It might be worth checking out www.big.uk.com (go to Jobs & Resources section). I'd also be interested in hearing from you any other advice or tips youg et that we could add to our current information to help others in your situation!
 
Best wishes,
 
Lucy Moorcraft
