Jane is the founder and CEO of Sebastian's Action Trust, a nationally recognised incorporated charity providing respite breaks, emotional, social and practical support to the families of seriously ill children. We focus on a region encompassing Berkshire, Surrey, Bucks, Hampshire and Oxfordshire, although demand for our services has resulted in a national reach, with families coming to us from more than 34 counties of England, Scotland and Wales for respite breaks at The Bluebells. Having created The Bluebells, the UK's first and currently only purpose built respite house for seriously-ill children and their families, we are campaigning for raised awareness of the needs of families during the darkest days of their lives. We also offer support and guidance based on a model of best practice to other organisations throughout the UK seeking to emulate our success with The Bluebells. We now have a second facility, The Woodlands, in Crowthorne, Berkshire, from where outreach and specialist support is offered. In time we aim to replicate the complete family respite model we offer at The Bluebells. From our two centres we provide outreach and specialist care across the five counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Oxfordshire and Surrey. Specialist care includes child/youth support, finance and welfare advocacy, a range of therapeutic services to include music, art and horticultural therapy, along with bereavement care that ensures continuity after the death of a child where other clinical/ancillary services have withdrawn. We are a family led charity that constantly strives to address the unmet needs of the families we support. In July 2014 the collective efforts of the Trust were recognised at the highest level with the presentation of The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service, acknowledged as the MBE for voluntary organisations. We would like to extend our working relationships with corporate partners with whom we can develop corporate and social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, whilst raising awareness of the vital work of our charity. We also look to engage with potential sponsors for our current and a second Bluebells.
