Enginuity is supporting Pride Month, not simply to add our voice to the chorus but because, as a charity whose mission is to encourage more people into engineering and manufacturing, we emphasise this means ALL people – whatever background, orientation, or gender.
At Enginuity, we say that ‘given the opportunity one engineer can change their world, and ours’. The world is not homogenous, and our industries need to reflect that, we need a far broader spectrum of individuals to help make up our workforces.
This month, we hoist the virtual rainbow flag not just in solidarity but as a beacon that says ‘come and join us’; bring your talent and skills.
A diverse workforce represents a diversity of life experience; challenges met and overcome with a different type of tenacity – one which comes not simply from grit and determination, but human spirit.
This creates an empathy that enriches a workplace. It also means colleagues with different mindsets – something that is fundamental to the ingenuity that drives innovation which is key to the success of our industries.
At Enginuity, we take pride in Pride.

Enginuity Announces Tom Brookes Best of British
The very best of British engineering and manufacturing was celebrated last night at the Enginuity Skills Awards 2022. More than 200 people gathered at 8 Northumberland Avenue in London for the first in-person awards since 2019.
Celebrating Achievements Together
The Enginuity Skills Awards are always a wonderful opportunity to recognise the very best talent from across industry, but this year will be extra special for a number of reasons.
Engineering Apprenticeships in Scotland
Scotland has a very proud history of engineering and going forward, our apprentices will play an important part in ensuring that tradition continues. In particular, they have a real chance to make a difference when it comes to helping the country achieve its aims for a cleaner, greener future.
