'Locked up' for Children's Hospice South West

A Bristol Bears supporter has been ‘locked up in Exeter Castle’ in a bid to raise money for Children’s Hospice South West.

David Roberts, who has supported the club since the age of six, is taking part in the charity’s ‘Jail and Bail’ campaign, a hugely entertaining courtroom event which sees fundraisers arrested, charged with their crimes (entirely fictitious, of course) and then placed on trial. 

If the jailbirds are found guilty of their 'wicked and entirely fictional crimes', which they inevitably will, they will be taken into custody, photographed and banished to the cells. They will only be released if they can raise bail of £999 from their connections, including friends, family and colleagues. This fun courtroom drama will raise vital funds for Children's Hospice South West.
