Our Innovation programme creates space for young people to design, build, and test practical solutions to real community challenges, turning ideas into tangible tools and initiatives. It runs through two formats, each offering a different way to get hands-on and build something real.
Projects & Competitions gives participants the opportunity to develop original ideas into real, working solutions over an extended period with mentorship, structured milestones, and the chance to showcase and be recognised for their work. This format is suited to individuals and teams who want to go deep on a single idea and see it through.
Hackathons & Sprints are short, high-energy events where participants form teams and race to build a working prototype in a compressed timeframe, usually a day or a weekend. It's a fast, collaborative introduction to building under pressure, ideal for those who want a quick, intense taste of innovation in action.
