[1] Drag artist Stephen Richards, who performs under the name Lola Lasagne,[3] told BBC Radio Sussex that, personality wise, "Miss Jason" was very much like Sutton himself.

Among the more notable recipients were Albert Kennedy Trust, Brighton Rainbow Fund (a fundraising aggregator for the Brighton and Hove LGBTQ community), The Ledward Centre (an LGBTQ community centre and meeting space), The Sussex Beacon (a charity specialising in care and support for people living with HIV), and Terrence Higgins Trust.

[7] Sutton, who was hosting a pre-parade breakfast at the Brighton Hotel, helped keep the crowd calm while police investigated the package.

In February 2016, Sussex Police Chief Superintendent Nev Kemp presented Sutton with a community award acknowledging the help he gave to law enforcement that day.

In part, the citation read: Miss Jason displayed great professionalism and helped to ensure a calm and organised evacuation putting the safety of the local community first.
