A talented apprentice and Miss Wales candidate wants to inspire future generations of young girls into engineering by smashing past stereotypes.
Jess Downes, from Towyn, had worked as a flight attendant but lost her job when the aviation sector was grounded in the pandemic.
She took a different direction and her love of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) and ICT subjects led her down the apprenticeship route, and she has no intention of looking back.
