The James Barney Foundation is a Christian relief and development organisation that was established in the memory of James Anthony Barney after a tragic accident in February 2008.
James was born on the 7th of October 1991 and died on the 23rd of February 2008, aged 16. He is dearly missed by all those who knew him but far from forgotten.
James was a young boy with an amazing sense of homour and the ability to make people laugh at the drop of a hat. His personality was wild and James was always there to reassure others and make the best out of every situation. Known and recognised amongst his family and friends for his infamaous cheeky smile, which truely did light up the room and warm your heart.
Through the foundation, we are dedicated to helping children and young people peruse life-changing opportunitities – something James deeply believed in.
We cycled from Cannes, France to Pisa, Italy in order to raise £10,000 in support of Ysgol Betws Gwerful Goch, a small primary school in North Wales.
