What is it?

Jailbreak is a once in a lifetime opportunity giving you 24 hours to hitchhike as far away from UEA campus as possible. 

When is it?

Spring Term time.

What are the rules?

• 24-hour time limit.
• Each team sets off at 8am from the square on campus.
• Hitchhike as far away as possible without spending a penny.
• You will have to make your way back to campus.
• The winning team is the one who reaches the greatest distance from the starting point. ​

How does it work?

• Get into teams of 2 - 3
• Create an online GoFundMe page for friends and family to donate. 
• Dress up in hospital scrubs (or costumes of your choosing). 
• Personalise a banner - you will also be given donation buckets. ​​
• A special shout out goes to the team that raises the most money.

Isn’t that super dangerous?!

• You will be given a tracker.
• You will send a picture of the number plate of each of the cars you get into to your Charity Officers.
  
• You will be stalked by your Charity Officers until you are safely back on campus.
• You will be given emergency numbers to contact.
• Be sure to consistently update your socials throughout!
• We've never had any problems in the past.
