Jet Harris Memorial Fund reaches £25,000!!
Posted: 10 Mar 2023, 22:55Hi Everyone,
We’re thrilled to be able to give you the news that we have sent another cheque for £500 to Cancer Research UK. This means that - thanks to your fantastic help and support - we have now donated a total of £25,000 in memory of Jet.
We’re delighted to share with you this certificate, which we have received from Cancer Research UK to mark the Jet Harris Memorial Fund reaching this milestone amount. Our contact at CRUK, Chelsea, sent the following message, “It is certainly an incredible amount of money, and we are so grateful for the support. It’s so lovely that so many people have wanted to show their love and respect for Jet. And as you say it’s not just the donations but also the awareness that you are bringing to our work, which is just as important so thank you ever so much.”
We’re certain that Jet would have been astounded and humbled to think that so many people would come together to raise this money in his name. A huge thank you to all of the clubs, musicians and individuals who have donated money, donated items for raffles, organised events and helped in so many ways. Also, a very special thank you to Bruce Welch who has continued to support the Fund over the years.
Sadly, as most of you know, we lost Rob Bradford at the end of last year. Rob was not only a good friend, but he also was our treasurer. He had supported and helped Jet’s Memorial Fund from its beginning. Rob knew that we were going to reach the £25,000 and we sincerely wish that he was still here to make this announcement himself. We miss him and we’d like to pay tribute to Rob for all of his hard work, encouragement and support.
As always, all of the money raised will go specifically towards research that impacts cancer of unknown primary.
Thank you again.
Take care and our very best wishes
Janet, Audrey, Barry, David and Justin
