JFEC was founded as a legacy to Jaden Francois-Esprit who we sadly lost to suicide in August 2020. 

​

Since Jaden's untimely and sudden passing JFEC has tirelessly worked to highlight the impact that bullying and discrimination within the workplace may have on a persons mental well-being.

 

We aim to 'shine a spotlight' on the many elements that contribute to a persons decision to end their life as it is often not one single cause.

​

After realising the difference we were making to the lives of attendees at our annual event, we decided to register as a company. We are proud to now be a Community Interest Company which we hope will enable us to provide support to those who need it.

FUND RAISING EVENT

In 2023 three friends challenged themselves to climb mount Snowdon, Linda, Jaden's mum saw this as an opportunity for her to raise much needed funds to enable her to continue JFEC's annual event with minimal cost to attendees.

JFEC founder, Linda said "the experience was tougher than I expected. I had to dig deep and keep reminding myself why I put myself through the challenge." Linda and her friends achieved their goal and reached the summit of Snowdon in approximately 5 hours. 
We challenged ourselves and reached the summit of Snowdonia

2023

Despite vowing to never climb a mountain again Linda found herself agreeing to climb Ben Nevis on 22nd June 2024. Linda knew she had to raise funds for the event but if she were going to do another challenge it had to be bigger than the previous year. Despite the challenge being daunting Linda and seven others completed the climb with pure grit and determination.
In 2025, we plan to travel abroad to hike at a more leisurely pace with individuals who may have experienced bereavement. Please get in touch for more information.

We would like to continue to seek out challenges for our communities benefit, as physical activity is one of our three pillars. If you can support by hosting a physical activity event or collaboprate with JFEC we are keen to hear from you. 

Despite JFEC CIC being committed to providing support to our community, we recognise the limitation of Jaden's mum self-funding and raising donations through fundraising events. To ensure our longevity we are asking, if you are in a position to donate to us, no matter the amount we would be so grateful.

Every little helps!!
