Mobile phone giant Huawei wants to invest in you - by giving three people the chance to win a share of a life-changing £30k in cash.

Following the firm's promise this month to invest £3bn in the UK over the next five years, they're looking for readers to back.

And all you have to do to win is answer the following question:

'What would you do with the Make It Possible bursary?'

Yes, that's it - just tell them HOW and WHEN you would splash the cash and WHY it would be life-changing for you.

Maybe you've always longed to open a restaurant but have never been able to afford it.

Or perhaps your bucket list includes things like writing a book, creating an app or starting a business.

To mark the launch of the new Huawei Mate 10 Pro - the world's first AI smartphone powered by a chip rather than cloud-based technology - the Make It Possible Bursary aims to drive the nation's entrepreneurial, creative and adventurous spirit by taking away the financial hurdles which can stand in the way of a big dream becoming reality.
