Student wristbands raise money for charity

A GROUP of students have raised over £250 for charity after their '˜Portsmouth inspired' award-winning product went on sale.

The Year 10 students from Ark Charter Academy sold their PuP wristbands to customers at Gunwharf Quays.

The product was the winning design in the '˜Made in Portsmouth' Dragons Den-style competition.

The competition saw four groups of Year 10 pupils from three schools competing to create a '˜tourist product that represents the city'.

Costing one pound, the wristbands will remain on sale at Guest Relations.

Proceeds will be divided between local charities.
