'With International Women's Day upon us, now's the moment to celebrate the initiatives that are breaking down boundaries for women.

This couldn't be more the case for a Cornwall start-up that is on a mission to bridge the gender gap in the science, tech, engineering and maths industries by running workshops for girls and young women.

Beginning this year, Girls Assemble has been running workshops outside Redruth for girls and young women aged between 9 and 25 to equip them with core skills in carpentry, metal work, engineering, architecture, design and print.'
