TWO women banged up in Holloway jail have just been released with nearly £900 to show for their efforts.

Mum and daughter June Wells and Linda Delieu, who work for Trust Thamesmead, spent a night in the jail as part of a fundraiser for Cancer Research UK.

Mrs Delieu said: "It was a great experience. We were made very welcome by the prison staff and even the food was good."

Altogether 46 people took part in the event and between them they hope to raise £18,000.
