Helping our communities flourish
Whether it's through volunteering or local funding, we're proud to support the communities our customers call home. Our employees give thousands of volunteer hours each year to charities, schools and organisations across the Channel Islands and Isle of Man. And through our community partnerships, we've pledged long-term support to charities helping local people with financial literacy and workplace skills.
Our partnerships
Blue Marine Foundation
Blue Marine Foundation is a conservation charity set up to protect and restore life in the ocean. Our philanthropic donation has helped them develop their local programme of work, including biodiversity assessments, education programmes and support of sustainable fisheries.
Warwick Long, CEO of HSBC Channel Islands and Isle of Man:
“We're very proud to work alongside our communities and the Blue Marine Foundation to play a critical role in securing the protection of the oceans and seas around Guernsey and Jersey.
The 3-year programme will enable the delivery of a comprehensive range of targeted and evidence-based initiatives across the community, inspiring the public, customers, colleagues, businesses and the island governments to drive positive change. We’re very proud of supporting work that will benefit future generations.”
Jersey Sport
We're supporting Jersey Sport’s Cycle Without Limits initiative, providing a brand-new electric van which allows the inclusive cycling centre to go mobile.
Cycle Without Limits offers specially adapted bikes and one-on-one support for people with disabilities or mobility challenges. The new electric van makes it easier for everyone across the island to stay active and feel part of the community.
Money Matters
Money Matters combines radio, podcasts and school visits to drive awareness of spending, saving, debt, financial planning and more among young people.
Workshops have been delivered to students aged 11 to 15 across 10 schools in Jersey and Guernsey. Meanwhile, a series of 15-minute podcasts, hosted by channel 103 and Island FM presenters, covered key financial topics, including:
- Financial education
- Financial wellbeing and planning for the future
- Keeping your money safe
Community Savings
HSBC is proud to support Jersey Community Savings and Guernsey Community Savings. These two charities help organisations to support islanders in building financial stability, independence, and confidence in managing their money.
