Jamie's legacy has been to offer help to others like him and I am very proud to be his Dad. The charity has no paid workers and no offices and in this way it can ensure that the maximum amount donated goes directly where it should- to the children and families the charity tries to help.Please view the charity website at WWW.JAMFUND.CO.UK. As a charity, we believe that YOU should be able to SEE EXACTLY where YOUR money has been used. There are pictures and examples on the website to support this so please come and take a look. Thank you for your time and help, Having a child ill with cancer or any life threatening illness can take its toll on relationships and this has been the case with my own, hence I now run the charity with friends as my wife and I parted company. To this end, we also try to help families as a whole by offering holidays. Thanks for reading, Paul, (Jamie's Dad) and Chairman of the JAM Fund.
