Alight

Luckley's Young Enterprise company 'Alight' won the prize for 'Innovation' at this year's awards ceremony. Alight’s main products have included a range of Christmas decorations and greetings cards made entirely by company members using recycled materials.  he girls also held a social event within school as an additional fundraiser.

Alight's Managing Director Nadine Harris said " Alight has had a very successful year.  We have pooled our talents to create unique, innovative products, which have sold well inside and outside school, and we have worked effectively as a team to make sure that our shareholders will be rewarded at the end of the year.  Our enthusiasm for our environmentally-friendly products and our belief in our company have helped us to develop our problem-solving skills. Everyone involved in Alight has really progressed in learning the skills needed to make a business successful.   Developing, marketing and selling a handmade recycled product hasn’t been easy, but in doing so we have learnt to overcome many problems. As individuals we have learned many skills, such as marketing and selling - we were informative and convincing when selling the products. As a team we have been extremely entrepreneurial and innovative since the products we have designed have been completely unique and sold without the benefit of brand loyalty.  We are pleased with the profits we have made to date and our shareholders should receive a good dividend when the company is liquidated.  We believe our success has also been because as a whole everyone has been committed to their jobs and helped each other out. We have made ethical products that we are proud of and can believe in.  We have learnt that good team work will get the job done faster with the highest quality required. We have also learned a great deal from our advisor, Christina."
