For the past two months we’ve been testing the demand for this community to be a national not-for-profit membership organisation working in partnership with other specialist organisations, and with its suggested activities strongly rooted at regional and local level.

Thanks to all of you who responded, over 650 people completed the survey, and many more have sent their feedback directly as well.

You can now access a copy of the survey report by clicking here (PDF 330k).  Four of the potential activities of a national network were consistently supported:

1. Supporting participation of girls in science, engineering and technology.

4. An independent, national voice for women in science, engineering or technology with which to influence public policy, employers and public perceptions.
