We have been incredibly grateful for and humbled by the support we have received from the island over the past 100 years. Now, we would like to use our anniversary milestone to give back to the community that has supported us over the past century by offering support to three local charities.
Last year, we asked our staff to select a charity they would like to support. Unable to choose just one, we are proud to be offering support throughout 2020 to three.
Introducing our Centenary Charities …
A holiday to Jersey can provide a life-changing experience for servicemen and women.
Holidays for Heroes Jersey offers past and present members of H.M. Armed Forces, with injuries in mind or body attributable to their service, a week’s holiday in Jersey. Included are their partners and children and since the charity started in 2008 Holidays for Heroes Jersey has arranged trips for over 3000 guests. These much-needed and well-deserved breaks provide a lifeline for heroes and their families.
