Local MS charity to benefit from Electricity calendar

Sunday 30 December 2018


A 2019 calendar made up of photos taken by Guernsey Electricity staff is set raise money for Multiple Sclerosis Society Bailiwick of Guernsey.

Employees were asked to send in their photos of any iconic Guernsey scenes to be included. The winning photo to be featured on the cover is of Moulin Huet, and was taken by Sam Thompson.

He chose the MS charity as the beneficiary. 

"The Guernsey Multiple Sclerosis Society is extremely grateful to Guernsey Electricity and in particular, Sam Thompson, for choosing us as its charity this year," Chairperson of Multiple Sclerosis Society Bailiwick of Guernsey, Linda Fermont, said.

"The funds raised will help us to support people living with MS in the Bailiwick, by assisting with day care costs for those in the community, who require occasional respite at the Leonard Cheshire Home."

Five different employees contributed to the final product, which includes photos of L’Ancresse, Saints Bay, Les Amarreurs, Bordeaux and Vazon. 

The 2019 calendars cost £3.00 and are on sale at Guernsey Electricity’s shop in the Vale.

"Our calendar this year looks really great and everyone is delighted with the final product. We always have a lot of fun putting the calendars together and it’s fantastic to be able to raise funds for such an important charity, while showcasing the creative talents of our team," said Clare Packman, Guernsey Electricity’s Communications Manager.

Last year the calendars raised £1,800 for the GSPCA.
