This is covered explicitly in Paragraph 20A of the Immigration Rules, which says...
Leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom will usually lapse on the holder going to a country or territory outside the common travel area. However, under article 13 of the Immigration (Leave to Enter and Remain) Order 2000 such leave will not lapse where it was given for a period exceeding six months or where it was conferred by means of an entry clearance (other than a visit visa).
As a Jamaican, you would have an entry clearance and as long as it is designated as 'multiple entry' you're ok. You can tell if your visa is multiple entry if there's a "MULT" in the common format area (i.e., near the top).
