We're proud to support the next generation of engineers through our partnership with Primary Engineer! This year, our team had the privilege of bringing Ben’s innovative idea—the Clean Water Access Bot (C.W.A.B)—to life. Ben, a Year 5 pupil, submitted his idea to the Primary Engineer Leaders Award competition, and we were honoured to work with him to create a working prototype. At GKN Aerospace, we believe in nurturing young talent and inspiring future engineers by turning great ideas into reality. We look forward to continuing this exciting journey with Primary Engineer and supporting more young innovators! Thank you Ian Gent Tom Ramsbottom John Watton Nur Ain Ariffin
