We are passionate about helping the local community in Jersey and care deeply about the environment that we are working in. Our team loves to get involved in the local community, supporting local charities and fundraisers across the island. We take the opportunity to get involved from a hands on perspective.
We believe in working with our community, ensuring we support local business. Our staff are encouraged and supported in their involvement with their chosen charities, whether by sanctioning time during the working day to offer support or by funding specific initiatives.
Magellan consultants transfer their enthusiasm and skills to the wider community when the opportunities arise.
Current support / activity
We donate our time and expertise to support the Jersey Employment Trust (JET) and Acorn Enterprises on a number of projects.
Our three year partnership with JET and Acorn Enterprises means that we can use our skills to benefit not just these two worthy charities but also their clients who, due to their disability or long term illness, seek employment or vocational training support.
Please support them too if you can. https://www.jet.co.je/support-us/
We continue to support the Jersey Reds Womens Rugby, through player sponsorship of their team captain, Lauren Lowe, and we are sponsoring the team’s travelling kit.
In the past, we have also provided financial support to the Jersey Reds Minis and Juniors and have also volunteered our time weekly to manage and coach the aspiring players to reach their sporting goals.
Past Community Support and commitments have included:
We assisted with the re-structure of the Governance structure of Jersey Cricket. This involved the creation of a Strategic Board and Operational committees which now satisfies the requirements of the International Cricket Committee (ICC). Magellan provided direct assistance to the CEO and the previous Executive to ensure all stakeholders views were considered during these changes.
We supported the Association of Jersey Charities in drafting their new grant approval process as part of a pro bono project. For more details, see our case study.
We sponsored community theatre for children aged 6-19 years old. This increased their access to theatre workshops, through which they produced plays aimed at raising awareness of themes such as the use of social media and mobile phones. This encouraged young people to take part in live theatre to build their confidence and self-esteem.
