Girls Into Coding

Girls into Coding is a Community Interest Company(CIC) and a mother and daughter run social enterprise. We are a mother and daughter-run social enterprise.

We engage girls in STEM activities, education, and careers supporting them through hands-on workshops and events. GIRLS INTO CODING
Girls Into Coding provides girls aged 10 to 14 with unique hands-on experience in physical computing, robotics, coding, engineering and 3D printing. Our workshop events are led by a range of tech expert and mentors, including girls in the same age range as the attende

es. Our vision is to see girls and women engaged in tech & engineering activities, education & careers - equally comfortable, with an equal sense of belonging, and in equal numbers. Our aim is to engage at least 10000 girls a year with hands-on meaningful workshop opportunities, educational content, inspiring talks and outreach

WE ENGAGE GIRLS IN TECH AND ENGINEERING ACTIVITIES SUPPORTING THEM THROUGH HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS

OUR STORY AND WHO WE ARE
Avye is now a 18-year-old student and passionate about Tech. In 2018, already a coder, maker and workshop leader she came up with the idea of organising coding events for girls, after repeatedly observing that most attendees at her workshops were boys. She was determined to encourage more girls to give STEM a go. As a result, she decided to set up ‘Girls Into Coding’, a series of events targeting girls. Girls into Coding provides extracurricular opportunities for girls between the ages of 10 and 14. We’ve created workshops events to immerse young people in a range of tech & engineering activities. Girls into Coding is a Community Interest Company (CIC) and is regulated by the CIC regulator since February 2020.

What a day 🌟

Yesterday, our girls showed up, built things, asked questions, and reminded us exactly why we do this work.

Thank you to City Bridge Foundation for making this event possible, and to Civo Tech Junction for opening your doors and creating such an incredible space for our community.

The girls explored hands-on sustainability, robotics, and 3D/VR activities and were full of energy.

Our guest speaker, Radhita, an interaction designer, delivered a brilliant talk: "From Building Tech to Building It." She shared her world of user research, wireframes, prototypes, and real-world digital design, and the girls were completely captivated.

Then came one of the most moving moments of the day. Mia S., one of our own GIC community members, stood up and gave her very first presentation about her tech journey so far. It was a true, proud moment for all of us. 💛

Both speakers sparked so much curiosity, and the Q&A was buzzing with brilliant questions.

A huge shoutout to Emily and Diana, two girls from our community who supported our mentors brilliantly on the day. Watching our community grow into leaders is everything.

And of course, thank you to every mentor and volunteer who gave their time and energy. You make GIC what it is.

Girls building. Girls speaking. Girls leading. This is what it looks like. 💪🏽

Is AI hurting the planet, or could it help save it? 🌍🤖

The answer is: it depends on how we use it.

Our latest Girls Into Coding article explores the environmental impact of AI, from the staggering amount of power consumed by data centres to the exciting ways AI is already being used to predict climate patterns, protect biodiversity, and support sustainability.

But here's the thing. The next generation will be the ones making decisions about how this technology is used. That's exactly why it matters that children and young people understand both the possibilities and the responsibilities that come with AI.

At Girls Into Coding, we believe tech education isn't just about learning to code. It's about engineering a better future with the technology we build.

💥 Our next GIC event is coming up, and we'd love to see you there!

Join us on Sunday, 19th April at Civo Tech Junction, London, for a hands-on afternoon of sustainability, robotics, and 3D/VR, designed for girls aged 11 to 14.

Whether your daughter is curious about coding, engineering, robotics, or just wants to try something new, this is the place to be.

We'll be diving into exciting, practical activities designed to spark confidence and creativity, because we believe every girl deserves the chance to discover tech & engineering.

Huge thanks to City Bridge Foundation for supporting this event, and to Civo Tech Junction for hosting us.

Sunday's bootcamp energy was epic! 🔥

Watching girls move from "I'm not sure I can do this" to designing with CAD software, laser cutting, soldering, 3D printing, working with electronic components, debugging their own code, learning new skills, making friends, and celebrating each other's wins. That's what it's all about.

Sunday's bootcamp = proof that when you give girls the space, tools, and encouragement, they can shine ✨

Huge appreciation to Another Way Women's Foundation, Depot, UK, and our dedicated mentors and volunteers for making Sunday happen. Your support means more girls get to see themselves as makers, coders, and future engineers.

They told me girls can’t do tech and engineering — so I built a community that does. Brilliantly. 💙
When I received this photo of my portrait on the silver screen at the UN General Assembly Hall during the opening of International Women’s Day and the 70th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW70), I was completely speechless.
To be featured as part of a campaign celebrating women who have shattered glass ceilings, on one of the world’s biggest stages, is an honor I cannot put into words.
This is a reminder to every woman and girl out there, keep going, keep building, keep showing up. The world is watching. 🌍✨

💥 What a Sunday with Girls Into Coding!

Our girls had a fantastic day of hands-on tech & engineering activities exploring robotics, AI, sustainability and physical computing, and were inspired by two brilliant guest speakers.
Susan McDonald, award-winning Electrical and Mechanical Engineer, Director and Energy Transition Lead at Deloitte, Trustee of the Women's Engineering Society and Non-Executive at The James Hutton Institute, delivered a fascinating talk, "From Space to Number 10: How Engineering and Technology Shape Our World", showing our girls just how far engineering and technology can take them! 💡
Eleanor, from our own GIC community and amazing role model, shared her tech journey so far, proof that our girls are already making their mark! 🙌🏾

A special shout-out to Diana, who continues her mentoring journey with us and brilliantly assisted Avye with the workshop. We're so proud of you, Diana! 🌟

A huge thank you to our dedicated mentors, volunteers and engineers, and to all the amazing girls and supportive parents who joined us. A special thanks to Rhadita, a member of Makerversity, whose support on the day helped everything run smoothly!

We're so grateful to the Royal Academy of Engineering and Makerversity for their invaluable support!

Here's to empowering more girls through tech and engineering! 🤖 🛠️

Human + AI = The Ultimate Power Duo! 🦾

Still worried about AI taking over? The evidence tells a very different story! 🤖✨

While AI is reshaping the job market, it's not replacing human potential; it's amplifying it! From refuse collectors using AI route tracking to customer service managers leveraging business intelligence tools, humans are working smarter, not disappearing.

Think cultural intelligence, communication, and compassion, the skills that make AI fairer and more human-centred.

As machines get smarter, our human qualities become more invaluable, not less. The future belongs to those who can combine tech know-how with the uniquely human skills that make AI better, fairer, and more accessible for everyone.
