From 7th to 9th October 2025, Scarborough Spa will host the 16th anniversary of Scarborough Science and Engineering Week (STEM Week).
Since its launch, STEM Week has welcomed more than 42,000 students. This year, around 3,500 children and young people aged 10–19 from schools and colleges across the North Yorkshire Coast, Ryedale, and beyond will attend. With around 40 exhibitors, including employers, training providers, and education organisations, the event offers hands-on opportunities to explore careers in science, technology, engineering, and maths.
Dale Power Solutions is proud to exhibit at this event, helping to inspire the next generation of engineers, innovators, and problem-solvers. STEM Week plays an important role in showing young people the exciting opportunities available in skill-based careers, and right here on the coast.
We’ll be showcasing our award-winning apprenticeship scheme and work experience opportunities, designed to help students take their first steps towards rewarding careers.
