We are inviting schools to support the ELSA research study, led by the University of Birmingham, which aims to screen children and young people aged two to 17 for early risk of type 1 diabetes.

This Child Safety Week (Friday 1 to Sunday 7 June 2026), the i‑THRIVE and Participation Team are launching Don’t Leave Yourself Exposed, a youth‑informed campaign focused on nude and explicit image sharing, funded by Kent and Medway Violence Reduction Unit (VRU).

Whether your school is planting more trees, setting up recycling stations, or developing campaigns promoting community awareness, we want to hear from you!

Submit your project to The Big STEM Challenge today, and let’s celebrate and share STEM learning in Kent!

New edition is now available.
