The BAE Systems Make It Enterprising Challenge - Radway Green
Young manufacturers come to the rescue of disaster victims
Budding young manufacturers from Cheshire, Manchester and Staffordshire came to the rescue of victims of natural disasters, war zones and other troubles, when they competed in the recent BAE Systems Make It Enterprising Challenge.
The event challenged 13 and 14 year olds from 11 schools to set up their own mini-manufacturing businesses and design, cost, build and market a prototype Unmanned Support Vehicle (USV) to respond to emergencies ranging from earthquakes and floods to police and fire department incidents.
All the teams responded with enthusiasm but it was Cheadle Hulme High School who took home the winners trophy on the day and Ruskin Sports College who were the runners up. Both teams will go through to the Grand Regional Final in summer 2012.
