Every month, we run a competition where one or more fans are named as the JJ Fan of the Month! These fans could be anyone, from anywhere around the globe. He, she or they could come to our attention in several diverse ways, for example, at a school Dan attends, a piece of writing he or she sends to Dan, or a fan-mail or letter that they have sent. We like to have an interview with the winners as well.
Congratulations to the JJ’s March Fans of the Month – the father and son duo that are Nick and Will Flindall!
