Why did you decide to get involved with Jailbreak?
We thought jailbreak was a fantastic opportunity to get out of our comfort zone, raise money for charity while doing something fun, exciting and life-changing. Our friends have done it before and only talk about it positively, so we thought why not us, we can probably win and if not, we get a crazy experience out of it and a nice wee improvised holiday.

Why did you decide to get involved with Jailbreak?
We all really wanted to get involved in a charity initiative and Jailbreak sounded super fun and unique, and it is for an incredible cause! We are looking forward to the memories that will be made as we attempt to flee Glasgow and intrigued to see how far we can actually get whilst we raise money for Glasgow Women's Aid. Glasgow Women's Aid is an amazing charity and we are excited that we get the opportunity to spread awareness of their work.
