Horsham STEMfest sparks young people into life

Hundreds of children and their parents found themselves transported into an amazing world of science, technology, engineering and maths, as Horsham STEMfest took over Horsham's Carfax on Saturday (June 9).

Organised by Horsham District Council in partnership with STEM Sussex at Brighton University and supported by the Horsham Business Enterprise Partnership and the Careers and Enterprise Company, the event was aimed at creating an engaging and exciting environment for children between the ages of 7 and 13 to start learning about and loving STEM subjects.

The country has a shortage of engineers and scientists and Horsham STEMfest is just one event provided by STEM Sussex, which inspires young people to engage with STEM.
