Donations

The Jason Roberts Foundation are the latest recipients of the JE3 Defibrillator Donation Scheme.

The Foundation, guided by their ‘Community First’ mantra, invests in local communities to change outcomes for the most marginalised in the UK and Caribbean. With a permanent community hub at Bridgestone Arena in London, the Jason Roberts Foundation supports thousands of people, young and old, making them the perfect recipient for a life-saving defibrillator.

Otis Roberts, CEO of the Jason Roberts Foundation, welcomed the donation, stating:

“The Jason Roberts Foundation is a community hub for learning, building new connections, developing life skills, and creating opportunity. We’re also a safe space for our participants. Today’s donation from JE3 Foundation takes us one step further in safeguarding the many members of our community who walk through our doors.

We’re extremely thankful to JE3 for teaming up with JRF to raise awareness on saving lives. It will go a long way in educating and saving our communities.”

Today, the Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation donated 3 more life-saving defibrillators to health and sports facilities in the UK.

The donations, made in Justin Edinburgh’s name, are just one of the ways that the JE3 Foundation is choosing to mark the two-year anniversary of Justin’s passing.

The Automated External Defibrillators will be a permanent fixture at the venues of each recipient organisation, including: Southend United Football Club, AFC Rushden & Diamonds, and Mavericks RFC.

In line with the commitment to sharing Justin’s story and increasing access to defibrillators, the Foundation invites organisations to apply to the defibrillator donation scheme.

The Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation has donated three Automated External Defibrillators to local facilities as part of the second annual JE3 Day. 

Launched in 2019, the campaign was established to raise awareness of cardiac arrest while celebrating the life and legacy of Justin Edinburgh. While COVID-19 prevented the Foundation from hosting its annual JE3 Gala on what would have been Justin’s 51st birthday, we remain committed to increasing access to Automated External Defibrillators and campaigning for Justin’s Law. 

Recipient organisations, each selected by the Board of Trustees, include Newport County AFC, Essex Community First Aid Events, and Marine AFC, joining the list of former recipients Billericay Town FC, Leyton Orient Supports Club, and Essentials (Billercay). 

The Essex-based commercial and domestic building specialists, with over 35 years of experience, have teamed up with the Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation.

The partnership, in which New-Gen Construction has pledged to donate a percentage of earnings from each and every project, will last indefinitely. Donations will support the Foundation’s work, delivering heart health education and CPR training, campaigning for legislative change, and to the defibrillator donation scheme.
