Jack Beasley Foundation: Turning Tragedy into Safer Communities
After their son Jack was murdered on 13th December 2019 due to knife violence, his parents established the Jack Beasley Foundation to prevent other families experiencing similar tragedy whilst keeping Jack’s memory alive.
The Foundation runs education programmes in high schools (grades 8-12), teaching students about knife violence ramifications and the snowball effect a single violent act has on countless lives. Students discuss these lessons with friends and families, creating community-wide conversations about safety.
After 18 months of advocacy, they achieved “Jack’s Law”—wanding powers for police. Combined with proposed legislation preventing knife sales to under-18s, these measures are making the Gold Coast safer for all families.
