His legacy
jamies legacy  

When jamie left us, there was a lot of publicity in our local newspapers, the storeys touched the heart of so many people. The paper then decided to raise money to buy twelve new heart monitors for the local hospital. £7,500.00 was needed. The appeal was called  Jamies have a heart. The money started pouring in, we had old age pensioners sending there money that had been to help with there heating bills. local schools did sponserd walks, children. were sending in there pocket mo ney. Within five weeks the money had been raised to buy the heart monitors, but the money still kept coming in so the paper asked if we wanted to carry on raising money for c-r-y (cardiac risk in the young) a charity that helped us so much. lots of events were raised including a fun run organised by keith Jamies dad and his football team they all got dresed up as women to do the run. £7,000.00 was raised alone this day In total £33,000.00 was raised for cry.The heart monitors bought slashed the waiting list by half, so from this jamie has saved many lives.




                                                            





how through Jamie we changed the way our local council runs the village cemetary.
When we came to put the aplication in for Jamies headstone, we wanted to have a photo plaque of Jamie on the headstone, a few days before the headstone was put up the council turned down the application they said a photo plaque would not be allowed they added so much to the heartache we were already going through. The local press, radio, and news got involved with the fight towards the council. Eventually they agreed we could have an etching of jamies photo on the headstone. The stone eventually went up, and then they said we would have to take it down as the etching was 1cm too big, we could not beleive they c ould do this to Jamies family. After one long battle with the council jamie was left to rest in peace with the etching of his photo on the headstone. We have now got things changed at the cemetary, they are  not so petty about rules and regulations as they were before. through jamie other people can maybe have what they want for there loved ones.
