Ever watched The Apprentice ?  This is the low-rent version!

 

The idea is to do battle with other GE teams to try and raise as much additional money for Marie Curie as possible by taking over the running of a Marie Curie Charity shop in Golders Green for the day on 7th May.  Points are awarded for increase in turnover, roping in new recruits to man the shop, increasing bags of donations etc, but the main point is to support this charity's work.

The apprentice hopefuls are Andy Smith, Priyesh Menon, Natalie Pritchard, Julia Gnezdilova, Alessandro Gagliardi, Alan Keachie, Joysheel Mitter, Kevin Slaughter and Paul Collyer.

We appreciate that you may not have time to come and watch us make fools of ourselves, and so we are also collecting as many donations as we can in the run up to the day itself.  Any money you can part with would be gratefully received and used extremely well by this fantastic charity.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
