The AXM is Foundation has been established to deliver one of Haydn Pope’s final wishes.Setup by Haydn's family, Stuart Donnelly and Karen Richards, their vision and hard work has helped build the Foundation to what it is today and keep Haydn's legacy alive.The Foundation consists of seven trustees - Paul Kershaw , Karen John , Andy Wade , Terry Gold , Debbie Redhead , John Harvey & Paul HarperThe charity is staffed purely by volunteers and none of the Board of Trustees work for the AXM Club. The organisation is the ‘AXM Foundation’ rather than the ‘Haydn Pope Foundation’ as that would have been the last thing Haydn would have wanted.
