EDT and Industrial Cadets become Friends of The Queen’s Green Canopy
We are pleased to announce our Friendship agreement with The Queen’s Green Canopy. The relationship will engage young people and ignite their natural interest in their local environment.

DEVELOP YOUR TALENT PIPELINE
We link industry with education through STE(A)M experiences, projects and placements. Whether you want to connect with young people through outreach programmes, support them on their learner journey, or hire an apprentice or graduate, we can make it easier for you to reach out to young talent
OUR TRANSFORMATION
Throughout the past six months, we have been working closely with our stakeholders to offer new ways of engaging and learning. By adapting our existing programmes, as well as creating new virtual experiences for young people, we continue to work towards fulfilling our vision of providing access and opportunities for all young people.
CAN YOU HELP US RAISE FUNDS?
Opportunities for young people are out there: the problem is that many don’t have the support to access them. Our vision is to ensure young people to develop the skills, experience and connections they need to enter the workplace and build the bright futures they deserve. Without the fantastic contributions of fundraisers, we would not be able to continue our essential work.
