Ruth Badger is set to become an ambassador for Wolverhampton’s Compton Hospice. 
Ruth shot to stardom as the clear favourite in The Apprentice before narrowly missing
out to Michelle Dewberry.

 

Now Wolverhampton-born Ruth is lending her support to the hospice and has pledged
to do all she can to boost its funding by appealing directly to businesses to put
their hands in their pockets.

Ruth’s interest in the specially-created role of ambassador was sparked by experiencing
first-hand the care given to family members.

 

 

Ruth will assist with developing fundraising and awareness campaigns for the organisation
and is due to take part in planned sponsored activities, including abseiling and
firewalking.
