21 local charities to benefit from the 2024 Saffery Rotary Walk

Charity representatives celebrate their selection with Walk Chairman and a director of the Event Sponsor, Saffery Trust.

 The whole ethos of the Saffery Rotary Walk is to raise and distribute money to local charities and nonprofit organisations who do so much for so many in our community in a myriad of ways.
 
The continued financial support and commitment of our event sponsor, Saffery Trust, ensures that all of the money raised by our walkers and those who sponsor them will be available to benefit these local charities.
 
The 2024 Saffery Rotary Walk was proud to support 21 wonderful local charities and you can see below which they were and how they benefitted. They were all so deserving and we look forward to sharing photos and stories from them over the coming months.
 
The window for applications by Bailiwick of Guernsey registered charities and non profit organisations will be open 15th October to 15th November so please check back then for the application form.
