JIMS DOCUMENTARY

Justice for Innocent Men Scotland (JIMS) is producing Scotland’s first documentary of its kind, exposing wrongful convictions and the devastating impact of a justice system that got it wrong.
At the end of last year, we launched a fundraiser to begin filming. In just 24 hours, we smashed our goal of £3,500 - a powerful show of public support Unfortunately, that fundraiser was later shut down after false complaints and a smear campaign misrepresented our work. We are still awaiting the outcome of our formal complaint, but we refuse to sit quietly while decisions are delayed and truth is stalled.
The team is ready.
The cameras are ready.
The stories are ready.
The moment is now.
All that’s missing is the support that so many of you already showed so generously
- If you supported us before and can do so again, we are deeply grateful
- If you’re new here and believe Scotland must face the truth about wrongful convictions, your support is just as vital
Our official bank account is now in place - if you are willing to donate again, all donations can be transferred this time directly to JIMS.
Please message us for bank details to donate.
After everything that's happened, please know: we are not giving up
To match what we've raised before - our goal now is £9,000, allowing us to make the documentary bigger, deeper, and more powerful, and to expand its reach beyond the screen.
Every contribution brings us closer to telling the stories that some are clearly desperate to silence. Stories of innocent men, devastated families, and a justice system that has gone unchecked for far too long.
This documentary matters.
The timing matters.
And your support matters more than ever.
We truly believe: we can do this - together
Thank you for standing with us, for trusting us, and for refusing to look away.
Please donate now so filming can begin without further delays.
We will provide weekly fundraiser updates, full transparency, and regular progress reports. That said, the sooner we reach our target, the sooner filming can start and the stories can finally be told.
They tried to shut this down.
That only proved how necessary it is.
Thank you to everyone who stands with us.
