Buildathon Bradford 2026 is a hackathon bringing young people to solve Bradford's youth employment experience gap using no-code.

If you've ever applied for a job and heard "sorry, we need someone with UK experience," you know the feeling. You're qualified. You're capable. But no employer is willing to give you a chance.

Buildathon Bradford is here to change that.

What is Buildathon?

Buildathon is a 3-hour hackathon where people come together to solve a real problem: the employment experience gap facing Bradford. You don't need coding experience. You don't need to be a tech expert. You just need creativity and curiousity.

What You'll Do

You'll work in teams to build an app that connects people in Bradford with real opportunities: mentorship, workshadowing, internships and apprenticeships.

Using no-code tools, you'll prototype your solution in just 3 hours. No coding required. Just creativity, strategy, and teamwork.

Why Attend?

✓ Build a portfolio project demonstrating critical thinking and problem solving skills

✓ Learn prompt engineering and AI no-code skills

✓ Network and get mentored by experienced professionals

Who Should Come?

Anyone with an idea or just curiosity. Students, professionals, designers, marketers, strategists, creative people, everyone belongs here.
