Sarah Represents MCFT At Festival Of The Girl

Alice Cole

Team Leader for London City, Sarah Tidey will be running 2 workshops at Festival of the Girl, an event aimed at 8-12 year old girls on Saturday 5th October.

Sarah, who is a Gas Safe engineer will be asking “What’s my line?” for participants to guess our tools of the trade and the various pieces of kit we use the tools to work on.

For the older girls (and anybody else that's interested!), she will be showing them how to wire a plug - a skill that seems to be missing amongst many.

Sarah will also talk about her role as a female engineer, why she enjoys what she does, where she is now and her aspirations to move forward!

She will be supported by Development Director, Karen McDonagh and HR & Business Support Administrator, Faye Walsby on the day. The organisers say:

"Through a range of speakers, workshops and activities Festival of The Girl will explore key topics including body positivity, physical and mental health and careers. The festival will also support carers to raise their girls in a less stereotyped way."
