Citrus Saturday
Citrus Saturday is an international experiential learning programme developed by UCL Advances, the centre for entrepreneurship and business interaction at University College London, aimed at teaching entrepreneurship and enterprise skills to young people around the world by giving them the opportunity to set up a one-day lemonade business and make profit for themselves. The program has developed the Citrus Saturday toolkit, used by groups that work with young people, providing guides, videos and other resources to enable participants to experience business at first-hand. History Citrus Saturday was founded by UCL Advances in London in 2011, who sought to create a programme similar to Lemonade Day (in the USA) to promote entrepreneurship in other parts of the world. Secondary School pupils local to the university in the London Borough of Camden participated in the first Citrus Saturday in July 2011 and by 2012 the program had expanded to Bridgwater, Dublin, Ireland and Edinburgh. ...
