JONES FM TEAM NEED YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE LOLLIPOP FUND DARENT VALLEY HOSPITAL
The Jones FM team will take the London Tough Mudder challenge to raise much-needed funds for the Lollipop Fund, Darent Valley Hospital Charity.
The event promises plenty of undulation, thick mud and a gauntlet of world-class obstacles to test the mental grit of the Jones FM team. Taking place in the hills, valleys and fields of Culden Faw. Thousands of first-timers and Legionnaires alike will battle their way around the course all for worthy causes.

How badly would you like to see Brad, Chris & team go through pain & be covered in mud? Enough to donate to a very worthy cause?
The Jones FM team need your donations. Every penny raised for the Lollipop Fund helps support the Willow Ward (Children’s Ward) at Darent Valley Hospital. This very worthy cause is raising funds to expand the Children’s High Dependency Unit with a range of expensive specialist equipment to care for seriously ill children. In such circumstances where it is decided a baby or child would be best treated at a specialist centre elsewhere, the High Dependency equipment would help the transfer to be done safely and swiftly, saving valuable time when dealing with serious diseases such as Meningitis.
Thank you for your support & please tell your friends, family and business acquaintances.

CHRIS AND JJ JONES TALK GOOD BUSINESS
In an era where corporate social responsibility often feels rehearsed, Jones FM has carved out a refreshing exception - a partnership with North Kent Mind that is defined not by press releases, but by sweat, stamina, and a commitment to community well-being. What began as a modest charity run a few years ago - a buoyant 5K event that raised just over a thousand pounds - has matured into something far more ambitious. This year, the Jones FM team undertook a formidable multi-discipline endurance challenge: a demanding combination of cycling, sea paddling, and long distance hiking that pushed everyone well beyond their comfort zones. The test of grit was more than symbolic. It culminated in a remarkable fundraising achievement of £6,730, a sum that delivers tangible support to mental health services across North Kent. The significance of this contribution extends far beyond the number itself. For North Kent Mind such funding strengthens the backbone of its essential services: counselling, peer-led support, well-being programmes, and community-based recovery initiatives. The charity's work is rooted in values of openness, togetherness, and a refusal to give up on anyone who walks through their doors. It's precisely these values that Jones FM's fundraising embodies. The relationship between Jones FM and North Kent Mind has matured into something both understated and powerful. It is proof that when a company chooses to invest not just its money but its people, its time, and its wholehearted effort, the impact multiplies. Funds are raised, yes - but awareness is also lifted, conversations are opened, and the often silent subject of mental health gains new visibility. At a time when the demand for mental health support is steadily climbing, partnerships like this stand out as models of modern corporate citizenship: grounded, human, and driven by genuine purpose. And in that sense, Jones FM's latest achievement is more than a fundraising milestone. It's a reminder that meaningful change happens when businesses and communities move forward together.
