The first charity match was in 2006 after Jamie was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (cancer of the lymph nodes) in November 2005, he had to undergo six months’ chemotherapy and one month’s radiotherapy treatment. The Walker family decided they would like to raise money to help others in a similar situation and the first charity match took place in May 2006 followed by a sportsman’s dinner in November 2006. Since then there have been three further charity matches and two further sportsman’s dinners which in total, have raised around £50,000 with the money divided between the King’s Mill Hospital Haematology Department, (where Jamie was treated), The Lymphoma Association and The Lymphoma Research Trust. Jamie and his family were recently nominated for the Beacons of Hope Award organized by the Lymphoma Association at the City Hall in London. Jamie is now working as a cadet airline pilot for Atlantic Airlines and is almost three years in remission.
