Our story

Teatime Robotics brings together competitors, mentors and volunteers who want more young people to experience practical engineering. Recognised as 2026 Event Partner of the Year, we support students through workshops, team mentoring and welcoming competitions. We share what we have learned through robotics to help others develop their ideas and become part of the community.
