About Us - Jessica's Promise

About Jessica’s Promise!

Jessica’s Promise is a charity founded to honour the memory of Jessica, who was passionate about playing rugby and watching football. The charity’s mission is to encourage children new to sport and support those already enjoying sporting activities. Jessica was a committed sportswoman who relished the competitiveness of matches and valued the friendships made through team sports.

We are dedicated to promoting positive mental health and wellbeing among all children and young people. By encouraging sport participation, as Jessica did, we aim to help children find enjoyment and create lasting memories. Honouring Jessica’s legacy enables us to share the happiness she experienced through her sporting pursuits.

We are a not-for-profit charity and all donations and fundraising efforts directly benefit children and young people. Our founders and trustees volunteer their time in memory of Jessica.
