Our Work

We are a major part of the St Helier Festival. We organised a tea tent with free afternoon tea for older residents. Brought in a variety of information stalls and local charities to inform and provide help for residents.

We are a new charity working to improve the lives of residents on the St Helier Estate and surrounding area.

Our objective is to promote or carry out any charitable purpose for the public benefit as the trustees see fit for the relief of poverty, hardship and distress for the residents of the St Helier Estate and surrounding area.

We ran winter warmer days for older resident in partnership with SACCO. There were talks and information on a variety of health issues as well as a free lunch.

We held a well-being day in partnership with the David Weir leisure centre

At Christmas we were part of the Christmas light switch on at Rosehill. Providing gifts for local children.

The St Helier Charitable Foundation aims to bring information to the residents of the St Helier Estate and surrounding area, about organisations that can help with problems relating matters such as finance, benefits, housing, anti-social behaviour, health and wellbeing. We also promote activities that are available locally for residents, particularly children, elderly and disabled.

The Foundation also collaborates with local resident organisations and the local council to provide information, events and activities. The yearly St Helier Festival, sponsored by the St Helier Charitable Foundation, aims to bring residents together to alleviate social isolation and promote community cohesion as well as celebrating local talent and promoting local facilities.
