See who dares enter the Dragons' Den

Returning this year is Footsey's own 'Dragon's Den'. Four new community enterprise ideas are pitched to the distinguished panel, in front of a fascinated audience.

The 'Dragons' will represent their organisations who are the potential investors. Each contestant is looking to attract investment from all, or some, of the Dragons - not all will be successful!

This once again promises to one of the day's highlights and seats to watch the proceedings always fill up fast! Applications to participate are now closed, and we wish all contestant good luck!
