In a groundbreaking initiative to celebrate International Women's Day 2024, The Work-Wise Foundation has forged a powerful partnership with the British Army to deliver three impactful Females in STEM Careers Days. These events, set to take place in Sheffield, Barnsley, and Huddersfield on the 5th, 6th, and 7th of March, aim to inspire young minds, particularly those aged 14 and above, about the vast array of opportunities in STEM-related professions.
