Dragons' Den star Steven Bartlett has partnered with Mercedes-Benz, supporting the car manufacturer's initiative to help Grenfell Athletic FC, a football team comprising members of the Grenfell community.
Through the partnership, Mercedes-Benz has donated two eVito Tourer vans, personally delivered by Bartlett, who's also offered business advice to young entrepreneurs from the community. Bartlett, also host of The Diary of a CEO podcast, commented 'I’m blown away by the positive impact Grenfell Athletic has had on the local community. Football has the power to bring people together and it’s clear that this has inspired many of the players to give back to the community through their individual initiatives and small business ideas. These electric vans will open up opportunities on and off the pitch and enable people to grow their businesses, help more people and give back to the community.’
