Across two Saturdays in October, Kingston School of Art designers inspired and supported by Fixperts will be running a plastic-free challenge at The Bentall Centre to explore how Kingston can reduce plastic use.

Applying design to this challenge, young people will come up with ideas of how Kingston can go plastic-free. Ideas will be brought to life through making and testing with a range of materials.

In each 90min session teams will tackle specific challenge areas from reusable systems to alternative materials. They will explore and prototype ideas to make Kingston plastic-free.

This activity is suitable for ages 9 - 14. Parents and guardians need to stay with their children.

Fixperts is part of FixEd a think-and-do tank concerned with inspiring and equipping creative, ingenious and generous problem-solvers around the world (especially but not only in schools and universities).
