Gavin Johnson

Current Occupation &  Location

Rugby World Cup winner Rochelle, or “Rocky” (as she is usually known) is the most experienced player to have ever worn the England jersey, having played over 15 consecutive years at international level.

Gavin is passionate about creating opportunity and inspiring and engaging with the next generation to improve their confidence and aspiration.  He manage's this in formal and informal settings, within educational facilities, as part of projects or as day-to-day behaviour socially.

What made you join The STEM Project?

Having seen first hand the value STEM can add to quality of life and aspiration, I am keen to promote and engage with this project. 

I recall the first time I went to the race track, I now visit young people in schools who are fascinated and engaged with seeing something different.  They dare to dream about what could be possible and I want more opportunities to help them understand what they can do to achieve what they want to without the perceived barriers that exist.

What would be your dream project and why? 

A Motorsport team managed and ran by young people.  

This would develop a whole range of skills and experiences that would transcend the sport and encourage 21st century and core life skills in a positive way.
