The Jamie Adamson Memorial Fund
(UK, 1115913) Browse events
YTD Raised: £7,484.30
(UK, 1115913) The JAM Fund is a registered charity, established in memory of my son who passed away aged five years after a courageous battle with cancer. Jamie was born on Christmas Day but sadly spent his last birthday being taken into intensive care. Established in March 2005, the Jamie Adamson Memorial Fund, (JAM Fund) tries to help children throughout the UK who are suffering from ANY serious illness. Although a very small charity, we do our best to also aid the families of children who like Jamie, have sadly passed away. 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.

Abscesses, pain and distress, parents of these children in Morocco are no different to any other around the world, they want their children helping.Maybe a little pebble in a big pond but three years ago a group of dentists from around the UK came together to form the Dental Maverick charity to provide dental care in remote areas of the world Expanding significantly in 2012,the Mavericks numbered a team of 15, including 8 clinicians and their support staff of dental nurses and admin staff. Excited at the prospect of providing restorative fillings for the first time to complement the inevitable extraction work load the Mavericks met up in Southern Spain for the ferry journey to Morocco. Laden with a tremendous range of clinical equipment donated by incredible dental company generosity and public donation, dental care we take for granted headed for a North Africa desperate for the services of this western team.
