We know that in an ideal world Ada’s List wouldn’t exist, because there would be no need to fight for gender equality in STEM. But, the truth is the sector is dominated by men. There are not enough women in STEM positions, or on boards of companies.

How can you help?

Just before Christmas, we launched a crowdfunding campaign. We want to raise £25,000 so that in 2017 we can expand Ada’s List.

Anything you can donate will help us kick off a successful fundraiser – thank you! We'd also really appreciate it if you shared it on social media - the more people we can reach, the better for all of us!
