STEM Learning have launched a brand-new UK-wide programme and we'd love your help!

Young people ask you brilliant questions whenever they meet you. For The Big Question Hunt, our ask is simple: capture the questions and share them with us.

Together, we’re building a nationwide collection of young people’s questions to champion what matters to them and show how curiosity powers research and innovation.

Getting involved is easy. Share as many questions as you can through the capture form, from the everyday to the unexpected.*

Submitt your questions.                Join the Community Group

Start Date: July 27, 2026

Time and duration: 6 weeks - 3.5 hours per week

YOU MUST BE 13-18 YEARS OLD TO JOIN THIS SQUAD

There's a former nuclear power station sitting right in the middle of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park in North Wales, and right now, a huge project is underway headed up by Costain to transform the site and bring nature back to the area. But here's the thing: nature can't thrive on its own. It needs people, communities, businesses and scientists all pulling in the same direction. That's where you come in. Over six weeks, you'll get under the skin of one big question - How might we connect nature and people to support biodiversity in North Wales? and come up with bold, original ideas to help make it happen. No science qualification required. Just curiosity, fresh thinking and a willingness to look at a real-world challenge in a way no one else has. Ready to give nature a voice?
