A young female engineering apprentice is celebrating after being named as one of the top 50 women engineers in the UK.

Abbie Beaver, 17, became the first female trade apprentice taken on by West Midlands multi-disciplinary engineering firm, the ADI Group, when she joined last September. The teenager had already completed ADI’s two-year pre-apprentice scheme aimed at inspiring local GCSE students to consider a career in engineering. Now she has been recognised by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) after exceeding expectations in her current role.
