BetaSpark.uk

The BetaSpark.UK community was founded by Callum Jones (BetaSparkUK) in memory of his grandmother in 2014 but never reached a public domain until January 2015. In January 2015, Callum Jones launched the BetaSpark.UK domain which boomed in the first month, becoming one of the most successful self funded communities in the UK. Callum's grandmother died of cancer and he saw how much it made his family suffer and how much she suffered before death. He didn't want anyone else to go through what she went through so decided to host a community where they would raise money for Cancer Research UK. But, Callum's grandfather was also dying slowly of Alzheimer's which made Callum even more determined to help fund to find a cure to both diseases.

Callum Jones (BetaSparkUK) whom is aged 17 is now one of the youngest UK most successful community managers based in Manchester, United Kingdom. Aswell as doing work online, he's been working to raise money by swimming the distance of the English channel for Aspire a spinal injury charity that help provide other methods of walking again.

Callum Jones, community founder said "My biggest dream, and what I want my grandmother and grandfather to be remembered by is this website. I want to bring everyone together, I want to beat all these illnesses. It's not fair that people suffer like my grandmother and grandfather did, it's not humane. We can fight it together, and we can end it together. I created this community for awareness of such illnesses. It's time we stand together, we fight everything and we never give up. The community has almost been near the end every time, we've always received donations, people are keeping us alive."
