Projects

Appleby Projects in Jersey

Some of the organisations we support through funding and in-kind donations include:

FNHC

Our colleagues are proud to support Family Nursing & Home Care and often get involved with fundraising activities. The charity raises money through donations, fundraising and legacies and is contracted by the Government of Jersey for the provision of services. The charity's ethos is to help islanders start well, live well and age well. It provides expert prenatal and parental care and supports children, young people, families and the members of our community who need healthcare or support in their homes.

MIND Jersey

MIND Jersey is a charity close to our hearts and we are always keen to raise money and awareness for it. We were all really impressed by MIND’s statement, which stated: “We won't give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets support and respect. We believe no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. We’re here for you. Today. Now. Whether you’re stressed, depressed or in crisis. We’ll listen, give support and advice, and fight your corner.”

World Milk Day

Each year Jersey Dairy supplies 23 Jersey primary schools, that’s over 6,000 pupils, with milk bottles holding 2.5% fresh Jersey milk. Jersey milk contains a variety of nutrients which are important for the growth and development of young children. The event is supported by Appleby, who are delighted to be involved with this initiative that promotes healthy living and encourages learning amongst our student population.
