My Relay for Life event

I’m raising funds to support cancer patients and their families across Ireland. You can show your support too, by making a donation to my page today.

This year I'm taking part in the Sligo event at ATU Sligo, Ash Lane, Ballytivnan, Co. Sligo. An amazing community event that will take place over 24 hours.

I’m fundraising for a great cause

Funds raised from this event will support vital support services for people living with cancer. These much needed funds will help the Irish Cancer Society continue to provide Night Nurses, Volunteer Drivers, a freephone Support line, counselling sessions, fund life changing research & much more.

Your help today, will help to make a difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families, together we can ensure that no-one has to go through their cancer journey alone.

In Memory of Joey

Saturday 29th Aug
Joey Jinks — our beloved Joey Boii — lived his life by his trade mark motto: “Rave On.”  And that is exactly what he did. And that is how we will remember him when we are walking together in Relay For Life on the 5th of September… To celebrate and remember Joey.

Joey you embraced life fully, passionately, and with a positivity that touched everyone fortunate enough to know you. 

You had the rare gift for making people feel seen and valued. You never spoke a bad word about anyone. Instead, you brought kindness, humour, fun and light wherever you went.

Creativity flowed through every part of your life. Whether through music, film, parody songs with friends, songs on the keyboard  or the incredible art pieces you created and exhibited at Number 45 Art Expos, you constantly entertained and inspired those around you with your wit, imagination and originality. Number 45 became a place you loved deeply — somewhere you could surround yourself with creativity, music, friendship and like-minded souls who understood and valued your spirit.

Music was one of your great loves. You belonged on the dancefloor, always at the centre of the fun, full of laughter and energy, especially at CLUBLANDIA club nights where you enjoyed every moment — strawberry daiquiri mocktail in hand, with your on-point lip syncing, air guitar playing and signature dance moves.

But what truly defined you Joey was not only your creativity and humour — it was your courage, positivity and outlook on life.

In 2023, after a serious illness, your life changed dramatically when you returned home after a year in hospital in Dublin where you were surrounded by the constant love of your Mum Kathy, to your beloved Sligo as a wheelchair user. Many people would have focused on what had been lost. But you never did! You refused to live in the past. Instead, you embraced your new life with determination, positivity and remarkable strength. You regained your health in your new situation, continued setting goals, planning and looking ahead with hope and excitement to the future.

You had planned to return to complete your final year in Creative Digital Media at Sligo College of Further Education, having already smashed  your first year with glowing results. You were proud of your achievements at Northside Film School, where you completed Level 5 modules in film editing and production with Sinéad, earning the admiration and friendship of everyone there.

Even when your life changes after your diagnosis, you never became bitter or disheartened. You continued to dream, to plan, to smile and to inspire. You always looked forward — never back. 

Joey, you were truly one in a million, if not one in a Gazillion. 

We will always remember your smile, your wit, your creativity, your positivity, your originality and your incredible zest for life. We will miss your encouragement, your laughter, your dabs, your mottos and the warmth you brought into every room and everyone you came in contact with.

But although you are no longer physically with us Joey, your spirit will remain alive in the hearts of everyone you touched.  We are all privileged to have known you and so blessed to have had you in our lives.  

And wherever you are now, may the music always play, the lights always shine, and may you forever… Rave On.

I will be raving on with Joey’s Crew in Relay For Life while remembering and celebrating you every step of the way!

I’ve reached my target 🥳
