Music-lovers headed to Our Jay’s Festival Fun Day in Newbold on Saturday for a day of fundraising in the sun.
Wolvey teenager Jamie Rees was the inspiration behind the festival, held at Newbold-On-Avon RFC.
Jamie suffered an unexplained cardiac arrest three years ago and later died in hospital aged 18.
Since then, his family have worked tirelessly to fund the purchase and installation of Publicly Accessible Defibrillators (PADs) across Rugby and beyond.
Jamie’s mum Naomi said: “All funds and donations from OurJay Festival 2025 are now received and we are so, so blown away to let you know that over £20,000 was raised last weekend.”
Organisers would like to thank everyone who supported the event, which included live music, games and stalls.
"Thank you to everyone who came along, supported, danced, took part, partied, had fun and made this another fantastic year for Our Jay’s Festival and for Jamie.”
