In June 2019, just days after his beloved Tottenham Hotspur had faced Liverpool in the Champions League final in Madrid, Justin Edinburgh suffered a fatal cardiac arrest, cutting short the life of a much loved husband, father and friend.

​

The Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation was set up in his memory; in pursuit of just one goal, to increase the survival of cardiac arrest. The ambition is big and robust; to empower people and organisations to act quickly and knowledgeably when witness to a cardiac arrest, by increasing access to life saving defibrillators and delivering life saving CPR.

​

Every year there are over 30,000 out of hospital cardiac arrests and the survival rate is just 1 in 10. Early intervention through CPR and defibrillators can double the chances of survival.

 

Sadly, UK law does not require health and fitness facilities to house defibrillators. But the JE3 Foundation is campaigning for legislative change to ensure peace of mind, improve survival rates, and prevent the pain caused by the realities of losing a loved one to cardiac arrest.

​

Echo Sixty One have passionately supported the JE3 Foundation since its inception, it is a cause that means so much to Darren and Naomi, having both lost loved ones to cardiac arrest themselves. So far Echo Sixty One have raised in excess of £52,000 for the foundation and we are proud to partner with them as they continue to do such impactful, life saving work.
