Dragons' Den hopeful melts investors' hearts and secures £50k for kids portable toilet

A single mother bagged a £50,000 investment and two millionaire entrepreneurs on Dragons’ Den for her portable kids toilet invention to the delight of viewers.

Zoe Chapman entered the arena last Thursday (February 16) looking for financial help to get her ‘Whizzer’ idea up and running. And although she had to give away 25 per cent of her business – 15 per cent more than she was hoping – she did at least attract Steven Bartlett and Sara Davies, who both put in £25,000 of their own cash.

It was Zoe’s heartfelt pitch that melted the Dragons’ hearts as she explained about her life and the death of her father that led to her inventing her unique product. Her emotional overtures won over the millionaire panel, as well as a horde of viewers, reports Birmingham Live.
