Advice gratefully received!
I have two teenagers passionate about STEM activities who would love to be involved with Bright Sparks activities but their schools are not into it and I have no knowledge. How can they find out more? Are there any clubs/ groups/ classes/ support avenues you can suggest. Many thanks, Kgs

Hi Kgs,
I find forums are amazing! (Like Skills Brightspaks and Arduino).
I would recommend starting with Arduino but some prefer Picaxe.
Helpful links for getting started with Arduino:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/ArduinoUno
I would recommend using the Arduino Uno as they are versatile and very popular.
https://store.arduino.cc/usa/arduino-uno-rev3 (Have a look around as you might get it cheaper!)
