Huckletree goes renegade to raise money for frontline workers

Huckletree launches Renegade Academy, an intensive one-week virtual bootcamp giving donated course fees to support NHS frontline health workers...
Remote living / working has some benefits - but not many. PJs as work attire are more acceptable, than if worn in an open office or coworking space for example.
Speaking of coworking, Huckletree, a leading coworking space, knows just how beneficial a physical space can be for an early stage entrepreneur or startup, with collective learning and knowledge being a core benefit for many coworkers / residents.
And remote, collective learning (apps aside) can be tough, especially when you are wanting to learn how to successfully start, grow and scale a business. 
Plus, the economy is under P, and with pressure comes responsibility..or something like that.
Step toward Huckletree's Renegade Academy, an intensive one-week virtual bootcamp designed to give new founders everything they need to launch their startup with user-feedback, a go-to-market strategy and a tailored pitch, ready to raise a seed financing round.
Now the explainer on the article title…
For the first academy class of 2020, Huckletree will be waiving the course fee (valued at £1500), and instead is asking participants to donate whatever amount they are able to, within their financial means at this time.
100% of all course fees will go towards the NHS to support the frontline healthcare workers.
The inaugural Renegade Academy runs 11-15 May 2020, and with the money raised going towards frontline workers, we can't hope but think that everyone will benefit.
Kudos to the team at Huckletree for leading on this.
