Jamie Loncaster

Jamie was a caring and thoughtful young boy, but he was also a typical teenager who was full of energy with an enthusiasm for life. A close family friend said that Jamie had fitted a lifetime of talking into his 13 short years, because he was such a chatterbox!

Anyone who had ever met Jamie would agree why, in his eulogy, we explained how his name reflected his character:

Joker Articulate Mature Intelligent Extrovert

Sadly, Jamie passed away on 14th March 2015 – he was only 13 years old.

We found Jamie in his bed on that fateful Saturday morning – he had died in his sleep as a result of severe viral myocarditis. Thankfully we’ve been assured that he would have known nothing about it.

The support since losing Jamie has been overwhelming, with donations enabling us to fund heart screening events with CRY in our local area. We like to refer to it as Jamie’s Legacy.

Jamie will never be forgotten and we remain devastated by his sudden exit from our lives, but he remains in our hearts and memories and we talk about him often. He will always be an integral part of our family and hopefully we will all meet again one day.

As we said at the end of his eulogy, “Sleep Tight, Little Man”.

Graham, Jenny & Ross

This memorial fund has been set up by the Loncaster family to help CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death through supporting CRY’s screening programme. Please visit their website to make direct contact: www.jamieloncaster.co.uk

The aim is to fund the screening of young people’s hearts within the local community. To date this fund has screened just over 2,000 young people, with the overall aim to achieve their target of 3,000 over the next couple of years or so.

Claim Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Cardiac Risk in the Young to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Cardiac Risk in the Young we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Tell me more »

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Cardiac Risk in the Young to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Cardiac Risk in the Young will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Cardiac Risk in the Young receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
