Plymouth City Council is encouraging local people to get on their bikes after securing a £1.5 million grant from the Department of Transport. The Plymotion programme offers incentives for people to try greener, cheaper and healthier ways of getting around the city. The incentives include a range of free services including cycle training, bike maintenance classes and help to give older bikes a new lease of life.

Anjola Awe-some! Anjola Awe, a 14-year-old student from Devonport High School for Girls won a trip to the USA after coming top in a UK competition. Anjola, from Saltash, travelled to Los Angeles with Heather Williams, chief executive of Young Engineers, along with a group of other UK students who have a passion for STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. Anjola won the UK Broadcom Masters title in Birmingham with her project on the Science of Language Development. Her success meant she qualified for the Broadcom Masters International event in LA. Alan Thomas, deputy headteacher of Devonport High School for Girls said: “The judges in Birmingham said that Anjola was a genuine credit to her school and a total delight to spend time with. She blew the judges away with her friendliness, her abilities, her social skills and her amazing project. For the UK competition students were interviewed for 30 minutes while they demonstrated their STEM project, discussed their love of STEM, their views on the importance of STEM and how STEM shapes the world both now and in the future. They had to display an ability to be mature and socialise with other students from all ages and walks of life, work together on two STEM projects with the other candidates and prove they would be an asset in representing the UK at the International Science and Engineering Fair. Alan Thomas added: “It was a stressful time but Anjola handled it magnificently. Congratulations to Anjola – we are very proud of her achievements.”
