Partner with us
We want to create a world where all young people have access to industry linked STEM education, enrichment and career opportunities. Help us get there faster.
Invest in the future
Not everyone can be a Premier League footballer, but we believe every young person has the potential to ‘go pro’ in STEM. Our partners do awesome things like:
- Fund direct provision
- Sponsor events and awards
- Power our volunteering base
For less than £10 per impact hour you can make STEM more inclusive, drive your talent pipeline and reinvigorate your workforce.
“What makes FIRST even more valuable to Arm is that they’re working hard to increase engagement with student demographics that might have initially ruled out tech and robotics as being for them.”

Empower young people
£15k
will fund 10 robotics kits supporting young people to develop employment boosting STEM and life skills
Champion STEM regionally
£50k
would power a More Than Robots hub for 12 months, embedding robotics provision in 24 schools and youth groups
Drive agenda change
£150k
over 2 years would enable us to recruit a senior fundraiser to 10X the investment and help us raise £1.5m by 2025
Reinvigorate your workforce
Bye bye tokenistic volunteerism. Hello impactful employee engagement. From single-day event volunteering to continuous mentoring, there’s a role for everyone. Talk to us about how, together, we can build More Than Robots.
Mentor a team
Donating a few hours per month (Sep-Mar) mentors work alongside teachers stewarding teams as they design and build a robot. Helping them seek out answers and overcome challenges.
Volunteer at events
Not everyone can devote regular time but most can offer ad-hoc support. We rely on a squad of passionate Game Changers from all backgrounds to help deliver robotics events across the country.
“I know that winning prizes is awesome but what I’ve seen happen today is so much bigger than that. These students have been collaborating and negotiating, thinking on their feet and strategising. It’s easy to see why competitions like this really do help students develop the skills they’re going to need for the rest of their lives. Honestly, I wish I had something like this when I was at school.”
