CyberFirst Ambassadors: Leading the Charge at Horizons!

We’d like to give a massive shoutout to all the incredible CyberFirst Ambassadors across the North East who are helping to deliver and support the CyberFirst Horizons programme. Your energy, commitment, and knowledge are what is going to make the coming weeks not just educational—but truly inspiring.

From engaging with our cohort of 50 students, to leading hands-on activities, to sharing your personal journeys into the Cyber and Tech world—you are making a real impact on the future generation in our region.

CyberFirst Horizons is all about opening doors, sparking curiosity, and showing young people that there’s a place for them in our Cyber & Tech community. And thanks to you, those doors are wide open. We see your hard work, and we appreciate it.

Thank you for being the digital role models our next generation needs!  Please feel free to share our social banner to promote your involvment in the programme!
