Lock-In @ the Old Lock-UP
Three Gnosall Parish Councillors have agreed to be LOCKED UP overnight in the Old Lock-Up on Sellman Street to raise money for community causes as part of GFEST 2026.
Sponsor our three councillors as they find out what it was like to be locked-up in the local lock-up in the mid 1800’s. No phones, no heating, just a few candles(LED of course), some straw to sleep on, and a few snacks to keep them going.
Gnosall Parish Councillors Bob Middleton, Mike Sullivan and Keith Parry to be locked up to raise money for community causes.
Date: Thursday 16th – Friday 17th July
Lock-in time: 8.00pm
Let out time: 7.00am Friday morning, followed by a hearty Break-Out breakfast at the Grosvenor Centre, £5 per person, booking required.
