Jail & Bail Fundraiser · 23 March 2011

At Bluebell Wood, we care for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions. We support hundreds of families, both in our hospice and in family homes. It costs around £6.7m to keep our doors open for families across South Yorkshire and beyond. We receive 17% Statutory funding.

Story

<p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Guys, </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">I have a predicament; mostly I work for my dad, rigging sporting events, driving lorries and generally keeping out of trouble.....</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">On Wednesday, 23rd March 2011 my place of work is sending me to the Regent Hotel in Doncaster! I thought it was&nbsp;to reccee the place before an event but.... I have information that the place will be 'stormed' by South Yorkshire Police who will arrest me and my colleagues escorting us to HMP Marshgate, Doncaster.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">This is the scary bit... unless I raise more than &pound;1000 they won&rsquo;t let me out!!! Now no one wants to see Cope Dog put in prison so please support me by raising money for the fantastic charity Bluebell Wood. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Bluebell Wood is a Children&rsquo;s Hospice which offers care and support to children and young adults with a shortened life expectancy. A place filled full of love and laughter giving families the chance to relax, take a break and have fun. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">It costs &pound;2.5million each year to offer this support with no statutory government funding. So without the help of supporters (or victims like me) they simply couldn&rsquo;t help all the children they do. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">So come on guys dig deep! Live television and local social entertainment depends on my release!</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Oh and by the way, when I am arrested the only things I am allowed to take into prison is my mobile phone, my dad&rsquo;s Sim card and a telephone directory! If I happen to call you because your name doesn&rsquo;t appear on my JustGiving Page then there will be a financial forfeit! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>Another thing my dad says he will double the amount I raise, so get giving! </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Press the button now!
