Ellie Driver is a 23-year-old elite British sailor and maritime engineer. She has partnered with the Women’s Engineering Society, a charity that supports women in engineering to fulfil their potential. She intends to use her campaign to raise the profile of women in engineering and to encourage more women to study STEM subjects.

Supporting Ellie’s campaign will help promote the vision of the Women’s Engineering Society of an engineering industry that employs the diversity of the society it serves to solve the biggest societal issues of our time.

This year Ellie is competing in the elite French racing circuit on a Figaro 3 in a combination of solo, double handed and crewed races.
