About Girls with Drills

Girls with Drills think making stuff is too much fun for anyone to be excluded. So they’re doing something about it. #girlswithdrills was born out of the frustration that so many girls and women want to be self-sufficient but haven’t been given the tools or know-how to be. Since 2018, Girls with Drills have gone all around the UK to teach people how to use power tools. Their main aim is to create a safe space where people can be goofy, ask questions, make mistakes and learn from them without feeling judged!
