‘RHUL Apprentice Challenge 2012′
The RHUL Apprentice Challenge took place over three gruelling weeks, with the final held last Tuesday.
Congratulations to Joe Shellard, Nimrod Szakacs, Yumeng Zhang and Fraser Ballantyne who formed the Team Red Dragons. They are team which shook Royal Holloway and its surroundings for 2 weeks!
The competition was tough and the Dragons actually lost in the first task, raising the least amount of money from the £50 they were given. However they pulled through and wowed the judges with their second and third tasks- forming a fantastic business strategy to turn around struggling pub Almamata.
The team were each given a LiveScribe Pen and a ticket to the University of London Apprentice finals.
A huge well done to all of the teams, and an extra cheer for them as they succeeded in raising over £700 for the Prince’s Trust!
