Are you a budding entrepreneur?

29 September 2008

If so we have a challenge for you!

Sue Ryder Care - Manorlands Hospice is appealing to companies to take part in their corporate challenge ‘Big Wigs’. This is a chance for you and your colleagues to come together and use £50 we give you and make it grow in a four month period.  We are not telling you what to do with the money, we just want you to make it grow and give it back to the charity with substantial interest. At the end of the project we will be naming the ‘Sue Ryder Care - Manorlands Hospice Charity Entrepreneur of the Year’, amongst other awards.

Each company that takes part will receive £50, which will be given to them at a special launch night in January 2009 (date to be confirmed). During the four month challenge period, the ‘Big Wigs’ will be entitled to consultations from the fundraising team at Manorlands Hospice to help them come up with some great ideas.

This event has been run at our hospice in Peterborough and has proved to be a success with £21,000 raised in 2007. So to help us make the event a success here and raise vital funds for Manorlands Hospice we need you to take up this challenge. If you are interested in taking part or would even like to sponsor the event then please contact
Carly Balmforth, Fundraiser on 01535 640441 or email carly.balmforth@suerydercare.org.
