02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

The Charity is primarily set to provide the advancement of education. We provide free Automotive Skills courses to young candidates. We are building on this and looking to expand our course offering. Thanks to grants this year, we have been able to purchase additional equipment which will allow us to teach additional courses when approval is granted. We have just launched a new Inspiring Foundations #WhatIF Enterprise Academy, where we will provide enterprise and entrepreneurial mindset courses to young people throughout Scotland. The first pilot launches in Jan/Feb 2027
