We would like to recognise the creativity and initiative of our FBM team, pictured here, who managed to complete three challenges in the competition before lockdown last March.

The team worked together on an excellent concept for a Vegan cookbook to encourage young people and schools to be more aware about what they are eating and the damage it can have on the environment. This fitted perfectly with the 2020 competition theme, ‘Build a Business to Protect the Planet’. The students carried out market research and came up with the name, ‘Natural Nibbles’ for the cook book; they were in the process of carrying out prototype recipes and sourcing recycled materials to produce it before the FBM competition was sadly halted.

This years team, who were partnered with local business, Hydram consisted of Hayden D, Jamie H, Alex P, Kieran C, Lucas H, Molly T, Lucy A and Isaac C.
