Lead 365 is thrilled to announce its charity partnership for 2024 with Jessie May, an esteemed children’s at-home hospice charity based in the South West. This marks a meaningful extension of our corporate social responsibility efforts as we continue to support impactful local causes.
Jessie May was founded in 1994 by Chris and Philippa Purrington after they lost their baby daughter, Jessica, to severe Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Jessica’s care at home during her illness inspired the Purringtons to ensure other families with life-limiting conditions could receive similar support because, after all, ‘there’s no place like home‘. Through their dedication and hard work, Jessie May officially launched in 1996 and has been supporting families in need since.
For many of us at Lead 365, Jessie May’s mission resonates deeply. As parents ourselves, we understand the importance of providing compassionate care and support to children and their families in the comfort of their own homes. The charity’s tireless efforts and dedication to making a difference tugged at our heartstrings and compelled us to lend our support.
Over the years, Jessie May has supported over 300 families and built an incredible team of fourteen carers. However, the need for their services continues to grow, and we are committed to helping them extend their reach and impact even further. We can’t wait to join them on their journey.
