The James Dyson Foundation encourages young people to think differently, make mistakes and invent.

Design Engineering is part of our DNA. We’re all inventors – summer holidays spent building dams; your solution to batteries falling out of the remote. Fundamentally, everything we use has been crafted, agonised over and produced by our design engineering ancestors and contemporaries.

Explore; use this site to discover our design heroes, find out how to design things that work and use our resources in the classroom.
