A CHARITY is asking people to turn £50 into hundreds of pounds in their version of The Apprentice.

Sue Ryder Care is running the Big Wigs’ Challenge, which will see individuals and teams given £50 on the proviso that they use it to make as much money as possible for the charity.

The challenge starts on November 1, and runs until February 28 of next year.

Kate Hallett, fundraiser for Sue Ryder Care, said: “It’s a perfect opportunity to promote your business positively, raise crucial funds, and all topped off with some healthy competition.

“Our challenge to you is to take the money and, over a four-month period, prove just how good an entrepreneur you are.

“We are not telling anyone what to do with the money, we just want you to think of ingenious ways to make it grow in aid of Sue Ryder Care.

“At the end of the challenge period we will name the Sue Ryder Care North and East Yorkshire Charity Entrepreneur Of The Year, among other awards for imaginative ideas and promoting the work of the charity.”
