Embark CSR is in the final stages of helping Leicester's iconic National Space Centre to redesign its Ignite! community engagement programme. Having taken stock of the first three years, Embark has helped the Centre to re-shape its outreach proposition aimed at impacting more local communities and creating 'Communuity Space Hubs' in local schools. Consulation with previous sponsors, including house builder, Jelsons, and Cambridge and Counties Bank, has also enabled Embark to re-purpose a sponsorship offer linked to support for Ignite! A campaign to identify new sponsors for the programme will be launched soon. 
 
Chris Shaw from Embark says " The National Space Centre has developed a fabulous community engagement programme designed to encourage young people to think about careers in STEM subjects. It quite literally takes the National Space Centre offer into local communities and makes everything it has available much more accessible to young people who might not otherwise be able to visit the centre itself, or know that it even exists."
