Great news, schools in the Alexandra Academy Trust are raising funds for JSF. Jon was a pupil at @monkscop so we have a close connection. Thank you to all for choosing us to benefit from your sports days. Have lots of fun. #independenceinepilepsy #epilepsyawareness

We receive at least 15 applications for support every month which can cost our charity as much as £7500. This fabulous donation from @admodularLTD will ensure that we can continue supporting the many young people who reach out for help. We are all eternally grateful.

Jon Shaw Foundation was registered in memory of Jon, he should be 25 today but we lost him to SUDEP in June 2019. We should have known about the risk, we didn’t. #sudep #EpilepsyAwareness @FoundationJon

Although Raven and Hunter are now adults, they still require constant care, especially due to the risk of Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). Jon Shaw Foundation has been incredibly generous, their kindness has helped ease some of our burdens.
