In addition to one-off charitable donations, we regularly hold dress down days for locally registered charities nominated by members of staff.

For every pound donated by staff, a matching distribution is made by the Bank to each of the nominated dress-down charities.

"We have a long-standing commitment to promote the wellbeing and future of the people and communities of the Channel Islands. By supporting charitable organisations locally in this way, we are able not only to assist them financially but also to raise awareness of the invaluable work they undertake", commented Chief Executive, Mark Hirst.
