Our Mission | Our Work Today
At The Jude Harvey Foundation, we’re driven by a deeply personal mission stemming from the loss of our beloved son Jude, to an undiagnosed heart condition. Our three commitments are to raise funds, awareness and screening to support young people aged between 14-35, particularly with Jude’s core values at the forefront.
With Jude in our minds always, we aim to foster inclusivity by reaching out to schools and alternative education spaces locally. Our priority is to embrace all situations of heart health issues faced by young people ensuring nobody feels excluded. Central to our mission is the promotion of heart health awareness and education on safeguarding young hearts, and empowering individuals to lead healthier lives.
Furthermore, we are dedicated to providing support and guidance to those affected by grief, offering a compassionate ear and/or resources to help navigate their journey. We understand each experience is unique and we are committed to connecting them with other charities and organisations that specialise in addressing their specific needs, focusing on a network of support and healing within our community.
