A runner-up from BBC reality TV show The Apprentice will become the face of a government-backed work scheme.

Bianca Miller, runner-up on the show in 2014, will become the north London ambassador for the New Enterprise Allowance.

The NEA is a government-sponsored welfare to self employment programme launched in 2011 which now has more than 50,000 people taking part across the country.

Ms Miller will be attempting to inspire people into self employment and running workshops across north London in the coming year at which NEA participants will be able to seek help and advice from the award-winning entrepreneur.
