Are you aged 25 or under and living in Salford? Interested in computer games design, AI, virtual reality, coding or digital art — or just keen to try something new? This winter, FutureTech Salford, delivered by MadLab, is offering a free programme of hands-on workshops designed to help young people explore future technology and creative careers.
The programme features practical sessions covering animation, video editing, coding, 3D design, robotics and electronics, alongside opportunities to build confidence, meet new people and develop employability skills. Participants can pick and mix sessions to suit their interests, whether they’re exploring a future career in tech or taking their first steps back into learning. FutureTech is particularly suitable for young people not currently in education, employment or training.
Workshops run weekly in Salford, online at weekends, and include special experience days at MediaCityUK.
