About us
The RAF Charitable Trust’s objects are to Promote the RAF and to Inspire Young People to Fulfil their Potential in Air, Space and Technology.
We are dedicated to inspiring future generations of young minds to achieve their full potential and to building a brighter, more sustainable future for the defence, national security, and space and aviation industries.
The security of the Nation depends on people who are STEM-aware and are therefore: agile and comfortable with ambiguity; able to think critically; and at ease with science, technology, engineering and maths.
The reach afforded to us by RIAT puts us in a unique position to act as a convener; bringing together the defence, aviation and technology sectors with charities and other organisations working to bring the world of STEM, aviation and space to life for young people.
Powered by the Royal International Air Tattoo, we are committed to reaching 500,000 young people with STEM educational engagements by 2026, and 500,000 a year after that.
