Elmete Central is a school for children with behavioural, educational and social difficulties. I've been contacted by a teacher there who is coordinating an enterprise project which sees the pupils organise different events to raise money for local charities. In doing this, the pupils gain valuable interpersonal skills which, while we may take them for granted, due to their personal situations the pupils struggle to develop. The school is looking for a few members of the society who wish to volunteer with this school and help them in their project. For all those that are interested, there is a dinner at Headingley Carnegie Stadium towards the end of October celebrating what they have achieved so far. All those that wish to volunteer are welcome to this event.

Ajaz Ahmed, the founder of Freeserve - formally the UK's largest internet service provider - will be coming in to talk to us about his story from sales assistant in PC world to the multi millionaire owner of one of the UK's fastest growing firms.  He will talk about his role in changing the face of the internet and be sharing his top tips for young entrepreneurs. 

The talk will be taking place in the Yorkshire Bank Lecture Theatre in the Business School, on Wednesday 24th February from 5.45pm - 7.00pm.  Refreshments will be provided and there will be plenty of opportunity for questions.  This is a great chance to hear from a prestigious local entrepreneur and get some invaluable advice from an experienced businessman.
