Rachel Hill and Magda Korytkowska, recently attended William Bradford Community College to introduce LOROS to the students from the Enterprise Group and to hand over an Accumulator Challenge Welcome Pack and a £50 note that they will be using to "grow" in any way they like (as long as it is legal and ethical!)

Mr Imtiaz Patel, Assistant Director of Learning Mathematics said, “It was great for the students to see what LOROS actually do. The LOROS representatives were both great and the students were very positive after the meeting. I think some of them were excited just to see a £50 note.”

Magda Korytkowska, Partnership Development Assistant at LOROS said, "A group of 15 young people were very keen to go ahead with the challenge; they were really enthusiastic and had already thought of several ideas to grow up the money by investing it and introducing local communities to the events they plan".

Rachel Hill, LOROS Fundraiser said "LOROS is calling for young, energetic people like the students from this college. If you would like more information on how your school or pupils can get involved, please contact me on 0116 231 8431 or rachelhill@loros.co.uk"
