Thinkpublic and TimeBank are inviting volunteering organisations in Northumbria and Sheffield to Pitch their Projects to a panel of experts in an exciting Dragon’s Den style event. We’re looking for health, wellbeing and fitness projects with innovative ideas for using volunteers. Whether you are running a sports club, befriending scheme, patient support group or nutrition programme; if you stand out from the crowd, we want to hear from you!
James Caan, entrepreneur and ‘dragon’ on BBC 2′s Dragons’ Den says: “Nothing can compare to the challenge of pitching your idea to a panel of experts in front of a camera. It really sorts the wheat from the chaff. This project is an interesting opportunity to learn about ideas for improving people’s health and wellbeing. My advice to organisations pitching is to prepare by putting yourself in the shoes of the Dragons and thinking about the sort of questions they might ask.”
