The Blair Project

The Blair Project is a multi award winning social enterprise based in Manchester. We are growing the army of innovators, technicians, engineers and entrepreneurs to tackle climate change by providing opportunities for marginalised youth to develop hands on electrification skills. How ?  Through converting petrol go karts into fully electric e-karts which they get to test and race to see who has the fastest and most energy efficient. We are the only organisation in the UK doing this.

We have an awesome reputation for innovation.  We were the only SME, amongst the heavyweight line up of academia, public agencies and corporates to secure a share of £100 million, awarded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT).  We’re using the funding to develop AR EdTech For Hydrogen Skills,  an immersive edtech platform providing hydrogen skills training modules for the manufacturing, construction, transport and energy sectors.
