The Smallpeice Trust is bringing engineering to life at CarFest with one of our popular drop-in, drop-out challenges. Designed to be hands-on, creative and easy to get involved with, these activities give young people a chance to discover the exciting world of STEM in just a few minutes. This year, we're inviting young people to take on our Crash Test Challenge. Using simple materials, they'll design and build a front bumper that helps protect passengers by reducing the force of a collision.

s they build, test and improve their designs, they'll explore how forces, materials and structures affect safety in the real world. This fun and interactive activity encourages young people to think like real world engineers, using creativity, problem-solving and big thinking to help make everyday life safer for everyone.

I will send images in a separate email as I've reached maximum attachments on this email If there are any issues receiving or accessing the documents just let me know.
