A Birmingham-based engineering group has been named as a responsible business champion by a Prince of Wales-backed charity.

The recognition places the multi-disciplined ADI Group among a distinguished list of alumni that includes Unilever, Deloitte and Anglian Water. ADI Group was awarded the Education Partnership Award by Business in the Community (BITC), a business-community outreach programme set up by patrons who include Princes Charles.

The award is the latest in a string of honours earned by ADI’s innovative pre-apprentice programme, which was launched in partnership with North Bromsgrove High School in Birmingham four years ago. ADI mentors 14-16-year-olds, giving them hands-on engineering skills, as well as valuable experience of a real working environment.
