Travolta sets up foundation in son's honour

Hollywood couple John Travolta and Kelly Preston have established a charity foundation in honour of their late son Jett.

The 16-year-old died in January after suffering a seizure while on a family vacation in the Bahamas.

The devastated actors have now decided to set up The Jett Travolta Foundation in memory of their son, and have vowed to help other children suffering from illnesses.

A statement on Travolta's website reads: "The Foundation shall endeavour to use its resources specifically to assist and provide relief to children with vision, hearing, mobility, communication, behavioural learning impairments or other special medical, environmental, health or education needs."
