DVLA Code Challenge 2022

Swansea-based Peter Lynn and Partners Solicitors have supported the DVLA’s Code Challenge for a fourth year.

The Challenge aims to provide Primary Schools, Code Clubs and Community groups in Wales with IT equipment and promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects aimed at children aged 7-11.

The initiative is focused on a competition to get children involved with coding games while providing an incentive and opportunity for the Schools and Clubs to win IT equipment and to promote the work of the volunteers and Charity organisations that actively engage with and support the schools to run these clubs.

“We are extremely proud to be able to support the DVLA’s Code Challenge for a fourth year,” said Peter Lynn, Senior Partner at Peter Lynn and Partners Solicitors. “This is a fantastic opportunity for young people to showcase their skills and make a real difference in the world. We believe that by investing in the next generation of tech leaders, we are helping to create a brighter future for everyone.”
