The inmates at Lifford Old Couorthouse
For the first time in 100 years, prisoners returned to the old jail cells at Lifford Old Courthouse last Friday night to raise money for charity.

The Jailbreak project was approved by the Government with support from the Dormant Accounts Fund and was made possible under the ARISE Programme, an awareness-raising campaign for social enterprises throughout Ireland.
To date, over €7,300 has been raised and people can still donate at idonate.ie/event/3551_jailbreak-2022
