Coolest Projects UK - The World-Leading Tech Showcase for Kids!

The Raspberry Pi Foundation is a registered educational charity (reg. number 1129409). Our mission is to put the power of computing and digital making into the hands of people all over the world. We do this so that more people can harness this power for work, to solve problems that matter to them, and to express themselves creatively.

Raspberry Pi Foundation

The world's leading technology fair for young people!
Coolest Projects gives young people the chance to showcase the great ideas they have created. This free event inspires and rewards innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship, and technology skills.
At Coolest Projects, young makers share their projects with fellow creators and the public, and they explore each others' work. Outstanding entries can win awards in five different categories. All Coolest Projects events are free for young people to enter or attend, giving more of them the opportunity to become inspired to create with technology.
Final admission is 2.00pm.
