The Kirkwood Jailbreak - Bad Girls

We're on the hunt for some local Bad Girls to arrest for fictitious crimes, keeping them under lock and key for a day until they raise enough funds to secure their bail.

Imagine a CEO guilty of hogging two parking spaces, a politician guilty of abusing social media, or a sports figure guilty of turning up late to games. There are countless reasons to see someone 'locked up' for a day, but the key is that they’re willing to spend Friday 28th March 2025, helping The Kirkwood.

On the day of the event, our 'Bad Girls' will be carted off to our 'prison,' tried for their 'crimes,' and locked up with fellow 'convicts' to serve their time. Don’t worry; we’ll take good care of them. They'll be fed and watered throughout the day, have the opportunity to network, participate in educational sessions, and enjoy some breakout time. They might even try to bribe the guards for illicit treats or send visiting orders to friends, family, or colleagues.

Our 'convicts' will be allowed to keep their burner phones and laptops to call in those monetary favours to raise their £1000 bail money through social media and calls. We’ll keep everyone updated on their progress through our social media platforms.

The funds raised from this challenge will help us continue supporting our patients, their loved ones, and anyone affected by life-limiting illnesses such as cancer, MND, COPD, heart disease, lung disease, and dementia.

Nominate yourself or someone you know to take part in this fun and impactful challenge. Once we have our 'convicts,' we'll take their mug shots to set up fundraising pages and social media campaigns.

The funds raised from this challenge will help us continue supporting our patients, their loved ones, and anyone affected by life-limiting illnesses such as cancer, MND, COPD, heart disease, lung disease, and dementia.
