FES Group is delighted to be partnering with social enterprise, Powering Futures, to support their Powering Edinburgh’s Future Programme. Their Challenge Programme takes real-life business and sustainability challenges faced by industries and has students develop solutions to them. FES Group will partner with S5 and S6 pupils from Musselburgh Grammar school for a full academic year, during which time pupils will learn meta skills such as problem-solving, resilience and critical thinking, as well as gaining knowledge and understanding of sustainability.

Powering Futures was set up in 2020 to empower the young and future workforce with the skills, knowledge and abilities to help the transition to net zero. It brings together the employers of today and the workforce of tomorrow, working towards the shared goals of prosperity and sustainability.
