Enginuity Alliance launched to address growing skills gap

Launched at the House of Commons on November 21, 2024, the Alliance is aiming to amplify impactful voices already making a difference in industry by connecting them with funding, similar initiatives and like-minded individuals.

Those that join the Alliance will have a voice in the projects that Enginuity funds, driving hands-on impact through pilots or shaping the charity’s active projects.

Members will also have the opportunity to share their thoughts on government policy and projects – including, for instance, what they want Skills England, the Department for Education’s new arms-length body, to do differently going forward. Enginuity said it will use the Alliance’s input to shape its discussions with Skills England and future consultations.

“The Enginuity Alliance is the start of a movement, a movement that aims to give those in the sector that may be furthest away from this building, in every sense, a voice in shaping policy, to articulate the support they need, and to access this support from within the community,” said John Parkes, head of Charity at Enginuity.
