JACKfm’s two-day fundraising Radiothon returns
JACKfm’s Radiothon is returning for 2021 supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities UK on the 1st and 2nd July.
For two days Oxfordshire’s JACKfm, alongside sister radio stations JACK2 Hits and JACK3 Chill, will broadcast live from Ronald McDonald House Oxford for 12 hours a day.
By sharing the stories and journeys of parents who use the facilities, all three stations will help to raise awareness and funds for the Charity, which enables families to stay close by to their children in hospital.
This is the sixth year that JACKfm has launched its Radiothon campaign, which has previously supported charities including Sobell House, Helen & Douglas House and Homeless Oxfordshire, bringing in donations of more than £300,000 for the good causes.

THROUGHOUT the pandemic, health care workers have been focusing on trying to find cures, treatments, and vaccines that will help fight coronavirus. What has been spoken about less often, however, is how palliative care doctors and nurses, have had to change their way of working to enable high-quality end-of-life-care, despite the constraints of the pandemic. Doctor Mary Miller, a palliative medicine consultant at Sobell House, told the Oxford Mail: The pandemic was a disaster and people have thought about cures, managing the disease, reducing mortality - but it is equally as important we think of what good end-of-life care is for those 706 people who died of coronavirus across the county and good bereavement care.
