Helping the Community
As part of our day to day involvement with the community, our postal workers are often complemented on their contribution to the wellbeing of the communities they serve. These are often small unreported acts of assistance but sometimes are more prominent and occasionally life saving. On a formal basis we channel our support for the community through our "Supporting Together" initiative. This initiative encourages all of our employees to give time and raise money for good causes. In most cases Guernsey Post will match a financial contribution or provide resources to kick-start fund raising initiatives. Support in the last 12 months has been given to a number of very worthy local and international causes - these include:
- African Impact
- Multiple System Athrophy (MSA) Trust
- Into-Giving (children of Africa)
- Race for Life
- 15th Itex Walk
- GSPCA
- Cancer Research
- Guernsey Stroke Association
- Guernsey Extreme Association
- Mug.gg (cancer charity)
- Les Bourgs Hospice
- Alzheimer's Society - Memory Walk
- Breast Cancer - waer it pink
- Home Start Guernsey
The events supported involved over 90 of our colleagues.
