THE branch manager of HSBC in York is to be jailed later this month to raise money for charity.

Nicola Jordan has been sentenced to a term of imprisonment at HMP Hull on October 24 for a series of dubious crimes submitted by her colleagues at the Parliament Street branch.

A class of school children from St Richards Primary formed a jury which decided her fate in an educational mock trial at the Old Magistrates Court.

Nicola will remain in prison until bail of £1,000 has been raised for Martin House Children’s Hospice.

Donations can be made for the initiative which is organised by Hull charity Smile Foundation at bossbehindbars.co.uk

Nicola said: “I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to raise money for Martin House in this unique way and to see what it is really like to be behind bars.”
