BWT Alpine F1 Team welcomed a group of 30 young school girls to the Enstone factory this week to meet with their chosen mentors as part of the team’s new Girls Mentoring Scheme.

During the mentoring sessions, female members of BWT Alpine F1 Team spoke with the students to give them advice and guidance based on their own experiences and career path. Following the initial meeting, each mentor will stay in regular contact with the girls, providing updates and checking in on their progress.
