Six weeks of online activities for girls age 11 and up to explore an unstoppable future
The GFS Big Dreamers’ Club is a six week programme of online activities for girls aged 11 and up. Each week, we will hold an online session where girls will be challenged to consider a future of endless possibilities. Each week we’ll ask new questions, introduce the girls to inspiring women and encourage them to explore new ideas.
By the end of the programme, we hope girls will have wider, less gendered aspirations for what they they can achieve and maybe to have even found a new passion.
The sessions
Session one: What’s holding you back?
Monday 9 November 5-6pm
We’ll start our series by exploring the barriers that might prevent girls and young women from chasing their dreams. And whether or not we should really let them hold us back.
Session two: Girls in Tech
Wednesday 18 November 5-6pm
Girls will learn about the future of tech and have a go at building their own body confidence app in this session facilitated by Bethan Vincent from Netsells UK.
Session three: Girl Boss
Monday 23 November 5-6pm
We’re inviting inspiring women speakers to give girls an insight into success in different sectors, including engineering. It’s a chance to ask questions and find out more about the different opportunities available to them in the world of work.
Session four: Girls CAN do that
Monday 30 November 5-6pm
We’ll be hearing from women who prove that girls really can do anything, including a professional journalist. It’s a chance to see role models shining in different hobbies and activities girls can get involved with.

Reflecting on the previous four sessions, girls’ can explore their aspirations for the future and have a chance to meet and join the Jane Bonds!
Session six: End of programme party
