Charity Challenge

Is your school hiding the next Apprentice?

Give your students a head start in the world of business and entrepreneurship by taking part in our Charity Challenge.

With the Charity Challenge, your students will be asked to develop a fundraising idea for our hospices, present their ideas to a panel and, if successful, help to implement the activity across the school. In the process, you might even find you have a budding 'Apprentice' or 'Dragon’s Den' candidate in your midst!

This challenge is usually set as a group task and can be completed in one day or over a period of weeks, making it a flexible option for both students and teachers. It could also form a key project within the following fields:

  • Work Related Learning
  • Business Enterprise
  • Citizenship
  • PSHE/PSD

Throughout the challenge, your students will be practicing and developing so many of the skills they will need for their future career, in business or any other profession - teamwork; decision making; communication and presentation skills; creativity; problem solving, and much more.

The Charity Challenge pack comes in two parts - a Teacher's pack and a Workbook for students.
