What to expect?
Inspiring people
…who bring their jobs to life for your pupils by sharing engaging stories, fascinating facts, and the different paths they took to get there.
We have amazing female plumbers and pilots, brilliant boat builders and engineers. And they range from CEOs to apprentices. Our volunteers spark curiosity and open children’s eyes to the wide world of work in a way that’s age-appropriate, relatable, and fun.

Interactive sessions
…to spark curiosity (and to keep them on their toes).
Live Q&A
…so pupils can ask their burning questions and really get involved (with a few examples from us too, to keep the energy going).
