Motorvations received an award from actor James Fox, with a prize of £10,000 and a mentoring placement for a teenager to join Bright Ideas Trust, set up by Tim Campbell, star of BBC's The Apprentice. Motorvations was established in 1998 and was supported by The National Youth Agency to engage with kids who were not attending school. It has continued to expand from a motor workshop staffed by one full-time member to educational provision that adopts a holistic approach to learning and offers a broad range of alternative educational programmes.
The prize money will be used to purchase equipment to develop delivery of sessions in construction skills.
