This year we delivered the programme to 10 schools across Reading, including 2 SEN schools during May. Our delivery partners were Stantec, Ridge & Partners, Weston & Co Architects. Other volunteers include a graduate architect and a graduate sculptor from Edinburgh University, a former Deputy Head of an SEN school, members of the Civic Society and a Consultant Project/ IT manager.

We were delighted to have been awarded grants of £3,600 from both the NHLF and the Royal Academy of Engineering Ingenious Awards. Haslams Estate Agents were Gold Sponsor for the 3rd year providing £1,500.
