Walk for the John Bradburne Memorial Society!
About the John Bradburne Memorial Society (JBMS)
The John Bradburne Memorial Society was founded as a charity in England in 1995 in order to help support Mutemwa Care Centre in Zimbabwe. It was set up in honour of its late warden, John Bradburne who spent the last 10 years of his life caring for the leprosy patients of Mutemwa. John Bradburne (1921–1979) was a pilgrim, hermit, mystic, and a theologian. During the civil war of 1979, John was kidnapped and murdered. Since his martyrdom, word of his life has spread around the world, and miracles have occurred in association with his name.
Why walk for JBMS
