Everyday Engineers is a pilot programme, led by ClickSafe Club, where engineers will co‑create with 7-14 year‑olds from underrepresented groups in Manchester to design and prototype solutions to everyday problems. The project will introduce children to engineering fields including electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, and computer/software engineering through wiring, circuits, movement, structures, coding, and robotics.
Using the engineering design cycle, participants will also learn about systems and design engineering, seeing how engineers creatively solve everyday challenges. Delivered through a Makers Lab in a community venue, the project combines hands‑on activities with inclusive storytelling, helping engineers to engage with diverse communities and highlighting engineering as creative and human‑centred.
