About Jami

Jami was set up in 1989 by parents, relatives and friends of people who suffered from mental health problems. Jami’s focus is on recovery; it is a major milestone for some to simply get out of bed in the morning and get dressed to go to one of Jami’s day centres. For others, moving to voluntary work or even paid employment may, for the first time, be an achievable goal. Jami is committed to helping members fulfil their individual potential, maximise their self-esteem and progress along their own unique recovery path.

Documenting support

We won a pitch to produce a promotional film for the charity which focuses on how they have worked in the community and successfully supported people to overcome mental health issues.
The film features 3 people whose lives have been transformed by Jami, as well as bespoke illustration animations.

They had these silent films of people working with gold leaf that are absolutely mesmeric and that almost felt like an installation. It really is something to watch, I mean I stood there for quite some time staring...
