We were delighted to host our Women in Motorsport Day, welcoming our Year 7s and Year 7 girls from across Cornwall for an exciting day of engineering and innovation!

Led by Girls on Track UK, alongside industry experts from the British Touring Car Championships, Falmouth University, Enovation Consulting and more, the day was designed to inspired the next generation of female engineers and motorsport professionals.

The event welcomed around 100 girls aged from 11 to 12 years-old from both Truro High School for girls and local state schools.

Supported by one of the programme’s partners, Enovation Consulting, a specialist sustainability and strategic management consultancy who facilitate the STEM-based activities at the ever-successful school days, the girls underwent a series of activities to test reaction times and simulate working in a Formula 1 environment.

Inclusion Ambassadors Louise Goodman and Cristiana Pace were present for the presenting and sustainability elements during the day, during which the girls ran their own mini media campaign and considered the importance of environmental sustainability within motorsport.

 

Jenny Fletcher, Girls on Track UK Manager comments, “As our programme continues to grow, it’s wonderful to be able to share these opportunities and connections with girls who are just considering what their future career trajectory may look like. I hope that we can accompany some of the Cornwall-based attendees on their journeys towards a position in STEM”

With women making up just 10% of the motorsport workforce in the UK, events like this are vital in breaking barriers and encouraging young girls to see a future in the industry. The day was jam-packed of fantastic activities, proving that the industry is open to everyone!

A huge thank you to the industry experts who helped to inspire our girls, making the day a motorsport success.
