The mayor of Lancaster is among the first 'prisoners' to be announced to take part in a special fundraiser for St John's Hospice.
Councillor Margaret Pattison will be among those to be 'locked up' in A-Wing at Lancaster Castle at this year's 'Jail and Bail' event.
Jail and Bail takes place on October 22, and players - all dressed in prisoner uniform - have to contact their friends, family and business contacts from their cell, to raise funds for the hospice in order to be released.
The mayor said she was "excited to take part".
Other 'prisoners' to be announced so far are Ashley Walker from HSE Advice UK, Tom Rigg from B4RN - Broadband for the Rural North, John Harrison from Houseclub Estate Agents, and Donna Mitchell, Lillianne Robinson and Alex Gabriel from Lancashire & South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust - with more to be confirmed. All are pictured below.
You can still apply to take part HERE.
