Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As part of the dastardly gang - 'the St Helier 12' - I shall be sentenced and in-prisoned on Thursday 13th February HMP La Moye, Jersey. Together with 11 other well known faces in the Island we will be sentenced, handcuffed and taken to the prison to experience 24 hours behind bars - and each want to raise at least £2,000 in bail money to secure our release the following day - all of which goes to support the Shelter Trust and their tremendous work with the homeless and vulnerable in the Island.

As a trustee of Shelter and Chair of the Outreach Group I am looking forward to this challenge and better understanding just a very, very small part of the prison experience.

Thank you for your support.
