What Medical Mavericks does

Medical Mavericks (legal entity MedicFest Ltd, registered in England and Wales) is a UK-based educational outreach company that inspires interest in medical and scientific careers by taking real hospital and sports-science equipment into schools, colleges and events. Its operational base is Wolverhampton, with services delivered nationwide across primary and secondary education (Years 4-13). Core customers are secondary schools, primary schools, colleges and educational outreach organisations that book hands-on sessions to expose students to the 300+ NHS career pathways beyond doctors, surgeons and nurses.

The product portfolio spans three core in-person workshops (Careers in Health, Mini Medics and the Human Guinea Pig Show) featuring ultrasound, ECG, keyhole-surgery simulators and ophthalmology tools, each supported by a 4-page student workbook. A parallel digital offering includes Medical Mavericks TV (weekly online video episodes), the MM Academy virtual work-experience platform, MedicFest career-exploration events, and the Future Medics After School Club subscription for parents and students. Curriculum-linked materials map activities to Science, Health & Social Care, Maths, Engineering and Technology specifications, and each workshop activity is tied to 2-4 careers.

Commercially, Medical Mavericks generates revenue through paid school workshop bookings, MedicFest event tickets and parent/student subscriptions. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is provided via a dedicated pricing page and direct enquiry (phone 01902 595 084). The company operates with 1-10 employees, is founder-led with no disclosed institutional investors or M&A activity, and grows primarily through direct school outreach, testimonials and referrals, supplemented by organic social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter) and content marketing via MMTV.

Core offering

Medical Mavericks delivers hands-on educational workshops that bring real hospital-grade medical and sports science equipment (ultrasound, ECG, keyhole surgery trainers, blood sampling arms) into UK schools, colleges, and events so students can directly experience clinical procedures. The company complements these in-person sessions with Medical Mavericks TV (weekly online video content), MM Academy (virtual work experience), and MedicFest career-exploration events.

Product overview

Medical Mavericks is an educational outreach company offering a portfolio of hands-on workshops, video content, and academy resources to inspire the next generation of medics and scientists in the UK.

These are complemented by Medical Mavericks TV (MMTV) - a weekly video platform with educational episodes, MedicFest events (large-scale career exploration events), MM Academy (virtual work experience platform), and the Future Medics After School Club.

Direct peers

• TeenTech: UK initiative running events and programmes that bring industry professionals into schools to inspire students about STEM careers. Closely comparable mission (career inspiration, school-based delivery, multi-career coverage).
• The Smallpeice Trust: UK charity delivering residential courses, workshops and engineering education programmes to schools. Comparable mission of inspiring students into technical careers, though with stronger engineering and residential focus.
• Speakers for Schools: UK charity connecting schools with professionals for talks and work experience. Comparable careers-inspiration model and school-direct GTM, though delivered via talks rather than equipment-based workshops.
• Primary Engineer: UK not-for-profit that runs curriculum-linked engineering programmes and competitions in primary and secondary schools. Overlaps on curriculum-mapping, school-direct delivery, and STEM career inspiration for Years 4-13.
• Science Made Simple: Wales-based company delivering interactive science shows and workshops directly into UK schools, very similar delivery model (traveling shows, hands-on STEM engagement) and overlapping customer base (secondary schools). Comparable niche educational outreach business targeting the same UK school procurement budget.
• Explorer Dome: UK provider of mobile science domes and hands-on science shows delivered into schools and events. Closely aligned on the 'bring real experiences to schools' model and on the year-round STEM enrichment buyer.
• Sublime Science: UK-wide provider of hands-on science workshops and parties booked into schools. Direct overlap on primary segment (primary and early secondary), per-workshop pricing, and direct-to-school GTM.

Broad incumbents

• STEM Learning: Major UK STEM education charity and CPD provider for teachers, with school-facing resources and events. Overlaps on curriculum-linked STEM content for UK schools but operates at far larger scale.
• NHS Health Careers / Step into the NHS: NHS-run careers information and school outreach programme covering the full range of NHS roles. Most direct substitute from the buyer side and potential partner or competitor for school-facing NHS careers content.
• EngineeringUK / The Big Bang Fair: UK STEM careers body running The Big Bang Fair and Big Bang Near Me events. A much larger, broader STEM events competitor and potential partner/sponsor; overlaps on the school careers-event proposition.
