► Jailbreak 2009

How far can you get in 30 hours without spending any money?!

WHO:  Pairs of students from Hull University

WHAT:  Trying to get as far away from Hull as possible without spending any money

WITH:  Only the clothes on your back, a passport in your pocket and bags full of charm!

WHEN:  From 4pm on Friday 27th March until 10pm on Saturday 28th March

WHERE:  Starting off from the Hull campus and then who knows?!

WHY:  Because it's there!  And to raise money for KidsCan, a charity dedicated to researching new and improved treatments specifically for childhood cancers.

Sound good?  All you have to do to take part in the Jailbreak is raise at least £100 in sponsorship for KidsCan and see how far you and a friend can get in those 30 hours. When Jailbreak ran in Manchester in 2005, one pair of students managed to make it all the way to Las Vegas without spending any of their own money.  Could you go one better?!  There are prizes for the pairs who travel the furthest distance and raise the most money!

In order to register you will need:

• the Jailbreak registration and disclaimer forms 
• a photocopy of your passport
• £15 entry fee (cash or cheque)
• £100 deposit cheque with your name and mobile number written on the back

This all needs to be brought to the Volunteering Hub by Friday 20th March. 

Click here to download an information pack (this includes the registration form).  Disclaimer forms are available from the Volunteering Hub on the 1st floor of the Union.  Cheques should be made payable to Hull RAG.  The £15 entry fee includes discounted travel insurance and your £100 deposit cheque will only be cashed if you don't manage to raise at least £100 in sponsorship.
