An Angel on the wing: Jeremy takes on a wing walk for The Christie Charity
Our Sales Manager Jeremy Angel is taking on an extraordinary wing walk to raise money for The Christie Charity, following ten years under its specialists' care.
There’s no shortage of characters in the glazing industry, but few have a story quite like our Sales Manager, Jeremy Angel.
This August, Jeremy is preparing to take on an extraordinary challenge, becoming the first fundraiser ever to complete a wing walk in support of The Christie Charity.
The challenge holds particular significance for Jeremy. In 2015, he was diagnosed with a rare form of appendix cancer called Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP). He subsequently spent ten years under the care of specialists at The Christie, before being discharged at the end of 2025.
Now, he’s preparing to take to the skies at Sleap Airfield near Shrewsbury on 6 August, raising money for the organisation that played such an important part in his treatment and recovery.
Jeremy said: “Without the expertise of the team at The Christie, I wouldn’t be here today. The care and support I received throughout my treatment was incredible and this is my way of giving something back. If I can help raise funds that support future patients and their families, then every minute out on that wing will be worth it.”
Getting behind Jez
At Jack Aluminium, we’re incredibly proud of Jeremy and the challenge he’s taking on.
Many people across the glazing industry know Jez, but not everyone will know the journey he’s been through over the last decade.
Andy Short, Managing Director of Jack Aluminium, said: “Everyone at Jack Aluminium is incredibly proud of Jez. Many people across the glazing industry know him, but not everyone knows the journey he has been through over the last decade. To come through that experience and then take on such a remarkable challenge for the charity that supported him is inspiring.
“We hope the industry gets behind him and helps him raise as much money as possible.”
It’s a remarkable challenge for a very personal cause, and one we’re pleased to be supporting as a business.
