Brighter Futures

Brighter Futures is a local charity supporting parents, families and young people in Jersey. We provide 1:1 keyworker support alongside a number of Free programmes and services to help support the parents and carers we meet. Brighter Futures were very fortunate to receive funding from the One Foundation in order for us to purchase new laptops used by our key workers and staff members.

Supporting 150 families at any one time, we focus on three key areas:

  • Parent–Child Relationships programmes
  • Positive Mental Health and Wellbeing programmes
  • Second-Chance Learning programmes

National Trust Jersey

The Trust is enormously grateful for the continued support of the One Foundation, which has generously funded three high-quality visitor guides for our historic museum sites (Le Moulin de Quetivel and 16 New Street) and two new immersive visitor films. Through the support of the One Foundation, which also funded a site-specific theatre production for secondary school students, we have been able to educate future generations – inspiring them to value and appreciate Jersey’s historic buildings, which the Trust has been protecting since 1936.

Jersey Sport Association for the Disabled

Jersey Sport Association for the Disabled (JSAD) is a charitable organisation, formed with the purpose of providing support and encouragement to local Jersey residents with a disability who wish to take part in sport. It has the general ethos that sport should be available to all, regardless of age or ability, and be fun!

The One Foundation has proudly supported JSAD with a number of initiatives over the years, enabling the charity to realise the sporting aspirations of so many local Jersey athletes who dare to dream to take part in sport. This includes a wheelchair tennis player, a learning disabled football team, the Jersey Special Gymnastics Club and Swim Easy Jersey (Swimmers with Disabilities) to name a few.
