Part of our Social Mission is to set up young people with the best entrepreneurial skills they can take forwards throughout their lives.
We’ve been running successful, in-school business enterprise challenges in Newcastle schools. The challenges develop children’s entrepreneurial skills, increase confidence, and focus on selling, pitching and smart thinking.
It is a 7-week enterprise project which ends with a dragon’s den style pitching contest (with prizes, of course).
To run our enterprise clubs and enterprise in schools in Newcastle, we have had the kind support of the corporate sector. It’s so much more than a financial donation.
If corporate teams have the capacity, they can volunteer as judges at week 7 or throughout the entire project.
