has also supported the White Ribbon Campaign, a charity that encourages men to challenge violence against women. Away from rugby, Jamie is a huge part of his local community in Leeds. He regularly attends Christian worship across the country to speak about his own life journey and is a trustee of the Leeds Rhinos Foundation, the charitable trust who work in the Leeds community. He was also a governor at his former school Priesthorpe School in Leeds but is no more. A number of years ago, Jones-Buchanan began an interest in journalism and reporting on sport and Rugby League in general. What began as a blog on the Rhinos official website soon became a monthly column in Rugby League magazine Rugby League World. From here Jones-Buchanan joined forces with childhood friend Alex Simmons on a new TV and radio project called Rugby AM. He joined the Rugby AM team in December 2013 and has been ever-present since, putting in an incredible amount of hard work in his spare time to help Rugby AM grow. When he is not playing or training, it is likely you will see JJB doing some form of work for Rugby AM. In 2016, Jones-Buchanan took on another new role, that of acting. Jones-Buchanan made his stage début in the Red Ladder Theatre Company production Leeds Lads. Fans had a chance to see Jamie in the play which ran between Friday 17 June 2016 and Saturday 25 June 2016 at the Carriageworks Theatre in Leeds.
