Youngsters are being urged to take up engineering through a new competition.
Rosie has written to secondary schools in her constituency inviting 11 to 14 year olds to design a product they would like to see made into a real-life prototype.
She wants pupils to submit designs and ideas for a gadget, gizmo, toy or tool, for ‘We Made It!’.
The winner will be entered into a nationwide contest where the best entries will get to see their designs come to life.
The winner of the competition in Doncaster will be invited to Parliament to meet Rosie and the heads of the manufacturing organisations involved in the project.
Rosie said: “I’m very proud to be supporting this great project to inspire young people to turn their designs and ideas into real products.
“I am looking forward to seeing the innovative ideas of our students here in Doncaster and I’m excited about choosing our winner to put forward to the national rounds.
“The UK desperately needs more young people who aspire to engineering and high-level manufacturing careers and I welcome this initiative to help students gain a better understanding of how the industry and businesses involved in manufacturing and engineering actually work.”
