I am one of eight local Business leaders and influencers who have been put behind bars for Maggie's. I've been found guilty of illegally imitating Jean Luc Picard of the Starship enterprise and sent down with bail set at a minimum of £1,000.

With only my phone, laptop and my powers of persuasion, I need your help to raise funds to pay bail and escape jail!

Maggies help me to cope when I needed it most. The lovely Sarah spent time listening to me when I just needed someone, outside of my circle, to understand what I was going through.While my throat was healing slowly after 30 sessions of radiotherapy (thank you Velindre) due to a tumour under my tonsil, my head was in the shed! The Maggie's sessions really helped me to push forward in a positive way. No pressure, drop in when you like. They really understand the cancer journey. Amazing charity. As Engleburt Humperdick sang, "please release me, set me free". Jail and Bail, please bail me out!

For many people living in the South East Wales, Maggie's in Cardiff is a beacon of hope, offering a unique programme of practical and psychological support, available free of charge to people at any stage and with any type of cancer, and to their family and friends.

Maggie’s in Cardiff opened it’s doors in 2019 and by the end of 2025 they expect to have welcomed and supported over 75,000 visits, delivered thousands of one-to-one psychologist sessions, and secured over millions in financial benefits for local people. They rely entirely on voluntary donations and gifts in wills to fund their work, and with instances of cancer 1 in 2 people, there is huge demand for the support they provide.

Please donate to bail me out (or keep me in!) and support Maggie’s – every £ will help.
