Agricultural drones, how school uniforms can be upcycled and algae-based filtration technology for cleaner air were the bright ideas presented by students from Drapers’ Academy, Sir George Monoux College and Thomas Adams School at this year’s Drapers’ Den. The team that nipped the lead were St Paul’s Way Trust (SPWT) with their plan for water bottles designed for individuals with autism and ADHD. As the winners, SPWT is looking forward to taking part in the Livery Academy Awards final at Mansion House on Tuesday 28 January. We wish them the best of luck and send huge thanks to all the mentors, the compere and the judges who helped to make this event possible.
