During half-term last week, STEM Ambassadors took to libraries and historically scientific relevant locations in the city, to read stories for children.

But not just any stories. These stories were specially selected to change perceptions of what science is and who scientists are.

Nearly 300 children and adults attended the 11 events, and we want to take this opportunity to share some photos, and say a massive thank you to the STEM Ambassadors and venues that hosted us.
