400 WOMEN aims to inspire women of all ages to consider a career in science, technology, engineering or maths, by showcasing the fantastic women who work in these fields across the Plymouth travel-to-work area.

It is a collaboration between Women in STEM Plymouth – a local voluntary organisation which aims to achieve gender equality in the STEM subjects – and the Mayflower 400 Programme – which commemorates the exceptional voyage of the Mayflower in 1620 with a series of world-class events, knitting together communities, inspiring creativity and culture, driving economic growth, and promoting understanding and education.
