EMPLOYEES are being invited to ‘lock up their boss’ for a light-hearted fund-raising challenge in support of St Richard’s Hospice.
Managers from across the city will be chained to the railings of Worcester’s historic Guildhall on Friday, May 10 and tasked with raising £500 in bail money for their freedom.
Among those signed-up for the challenge is Mayor of Worcester, Coun Jabba Riaz.
“I’m taking part because it’s fun, raises charity for a good cause, gets people talking about the Guildhall and St Richard’s and gets key businesses involved too,” he said.
On the day, each boss will be ‘taken into custody’ at 10am where their mug shot and finger prints will be taken.
Participants will be challenged to call on friends, family and colleagues to raise their bail by 3pm. It is hoped each person will raise £500 or more.
