Jail and Bail 2025

Welcome to Home-Start in Suffolk’s Jail & Bail 2025, where Suffolk’s business community comes together for a day of fun, fundraising, and community spirit—all to support local families.

When: Friday 28th March 2025

Where: Ipswich & surrounding area

Time: 10am – 4pm.

Here’s how it works:

🦹‍♂️The crime: You (or your colleagues) come up with a creative reason for your arrest such as “Using Comic Sans in presentations or relying on outdated clip art from the 90s and calling it ‘retro’!

👮‍♂️The punishment: Get chauffeured in a real police car, booked, and “jailed” until you raise your £1,000 bail to secure your release (we do give you some time in the run-up to the day to get your bail together)

🏅The reward: Supporting Suffolk families through challenging times and having an unforgettable day with plenty of laughs (and snacks—don’t worry, we provide more than bread and water!).

Why join in?

👏Team fun: Get your workplace involved by brainstorming your “crime,” helping you fundraise, and cheering you on during your arrest and release.

📣Social media stardom: From your dramatic arrest to hitting your fundraising target, it’s a fantastic opportunity to share your journey online and show off your company’s community spirit.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦Support local families: Every pound raised helps families across Suffolk during challenging times.

Know someone who’d love this—or a frenemy at a rival company? Feel free to pass this on or put them forward to join the fun. They can even compete with you for ultimate bragging rights as the top bail-raiser!
