Leeds RAG Jailbreak · 31 March 2014

We have funded over 100 research projects tackling many forms of cancer. In 2012 we opened a dedicated clinical trials centre at Leicester Royal Infirmary to offer patients access to new medicines and therapies. We also fund two nurses who add to the care and support trials patients receive.

Story

Hello,

The gist of what we're doing is this:
- We have 36 hours to travel as far from Leeds University as possible
- No bookings or official organisation of travel is allowed prior to the start
- No money may be spent on travel unless raised within the 36 hours
- Once the 36 hours is up, we're stranded. We can fly/hitchhike/walk/pay our way back home or keep travelling!
- All we have to show for our troubles along the way is a neon orange t-shirt and a laminated sign from Leeds University.

- You can follow us during the trip on the Leeds Tab, Leeds RAG Twitter page, or text us!

Have a look at George's team doing Jailbreak last year with two girls he was only able to meet for the first time the night before. We made it to Dusseldorf:

The charity we've chosen to do all of this for is Hope Against Cancer. A close family friend of George's passed away a few years ago now. And in memory of her, George has organised numerous fundraising events for her trust fund's charity, Hope Against Cancer. It is a brilliant cancer research charity local to her area of Leicestershire.

Please give generously. Neither us boys nor Hope Against Cancer can thank you enough.
