    Jersey Walk for Children and Light UPs

    9:00 am-5:00 pm
    2023.01.30-2023.02.03
    From 30th January-3rd February

    Over 20 local buildings across the Island will be turning green with our ‘Light Ups’ and flying NSPCC flags, raising awareness for NSPCC Jersey.

    For children facing abuse, the winter nights are dark, long and lonely.
    That’s why we’re encouraging friends, families and colleagues to walk 5k (Walk for Children) and raise money amongst the longest nights of the year.

    The NSPCC’s Childline received a call from a child around every 25 seconds at Christmas time. Calls about abuse, neglect, self-harm and anxiety – things no child should have to deal with. By joining in, every step participants take and every pound that they raise will help us be here for all children, even on the darkest nights this winter.

    We’re encouraging you to Walk for Children and spot our Light Ups with friends and family, donating to NSPCC Jersey.
    We can’t wait to see the Island show its support for children with this event.

    ? When is the walk?
    Any date that works for you, but do it between 30th January and 3rd February and you can tie in seeing our local Light Ups!

    ? Where is it?
    Plan your own 5k route to suit you. Check out our beautiful Jersey map, with info below for some suggestions to tie in the Light Ups on your walk. Do an organised trail, a loop from your house, or plan your own route – the choices are endless.

    ? Why are we walking?
    Children need to know that we’re here for them, even on the darkest nights. Walk 5k and raise vital funds so we can make sure no call goes unanswered.

    ? How much should I raise? We’ll be grateful for any amount you can raise to goes towards our vital work.

    ? Questions? Check out our FAQ’s.

    NSPCC Jersey raises funds for our local services we provide on Island. But Islanders can, and do, access Childline free of charge – which is funded by our National Childline funding.
    You can donate to Childline, or NSPCC Jersey.

    Trade Roots

    10:00 am-3:00 pm
    2023.01.30-2025.05.27

    We examine the evidence of the Island’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, including Jersey’s Lieutenant-Governor Sir George Carteret who was a founder member of the Royal Africa Company that traded in ivory, gold and enslaved people in the 17th century; Captain François Messervy of Jersey who was killed in 1722 during an uprising on board his slave ship off the coast of Africa; and Jersey trader Josué Mauger who in 1752 advertised enslaved people for sale in Nova Scotia, Canada, where his business was based.

    This exhibition takes place in the Victorian House at Jersey Museum, with its impressive mahogany staircase, because new research has shown that the house was built partly on the profits of the transatlantic slave trade. ‘Trade Roots’ explores Jersey’s historic links to slavery, from Islanders who owned mahogany plantations overseas and traded in slave-produced goods, to those who campaigned for the abolition of slavery.

    Thought-provoking, and at times challenging, this exhibition exposes some uncomfortable new stories from Jersey’s past and examines the legacy and impact of transatlantic slavery on the Island’s community today.

    https://youtu.be/nrlVHVid-20

    A couple, played by Vicky Krieps and Tim Roth, retreat for the summer to the island that inspired Ingmar Bergman. Hoping that being on Faro will spark the creativity that they need to complete their respective film scripts, reality and fiction begin to blur during their stay. This romantic drama not only showcases the natural beauty and wildness of Faro but is also a love letter to Ingmar Bergman and his oeuvre.

    JFS Members may reserve a seat in advance at the Box Office.

    Trade Roots

    10:00 am-3:00 pm
    2023.02.02-2025.05.30

    We examine the evidence of the Island’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, including Jersey’s Lieutenant-Governor Sir George Carteret who was a founder member of the Royal Africa Company that traded in ivory, gold and enslaved people in the 17th century; Captain François Messervy of Jersey who was killed in 1722 during an uprising on board his slave ship off the coast of Africa; and Jersey trader Josué Mauger who in 1752 advertised enslaved people for sale in Nova Scotia, Canada, where his business was based.

    This exhibition takes place in the Victorian House at Jersey Museum, with its impressive mahogany staircase, because new research has shown that the house was built partly on the profits of the transatlantic slave trade. ‘Trade Roots’ explores Jersey’s historic links to slavery, from Islanders who owned mahogany plantations overseas and traded in slave-produced goods, to those who campaigned for the abolition of slavery.

    Thought-provoking, and at times challenging, this exhibition exposes some uncomfortable new stories from Jersey’s past and examines the legacy and impact of transatlantic slavery on the Island’s community today.

    The History Of Vraicking – HAVO!

    6:00 pm-7:30 pm
    2023.02.02
    Jersey Heritage Members are invited to discover the history of vraicking in the Island, with guest speaker Nick Jouault.
    At Jersey Museum & Art Gallery

    February marks the start of the traditional vraicking season, when Jersey farmers were permitted to cut vraic – seaweed – to fertilise their fields. Loose vraic could be collected at any time and it was spread over the land during the winter and then ploughed into the soil before potatoes were planted in late winter and spring.

    Nowadays we may see the occasional farmer or keen gardener collecting vraic from the huge piles thrown up on the beaches by storms and there is plenty available for those who choose to follow this ancient tradition.

    However, in times past, vraic was a highly prized commodity and it’s harvesting well regulated.

    Vraicking expert Nick Jouault will be speaking in the AV Theatre at 6.30pm, for a short talk on the History of Vraicking.

    Find out how vraic was collected, dried and distributed in the Island and discover the renewed interest in traditional, more sustainable farming techniques that are an important part of our Island’s rural story.

    Welcome drinks will be served on arrival at 6pm in the Concourse and there will be an opportunity to speak with local producers ‘Ocean Harvest’ and ‘Tidal Rum’ about their vraic and seaweed infused products.

    Spaces are limited to 50, therefore booking is essential, reserve your free spot here.

    Jersey Walk for Children and Light UPs

    9:00 am-5:00 pm
    2023.02.03-2023.02.07
    From 30th January-3rd February

    Over 20 local buildings across the Island will be turning green with our ‘Light Ups’ and flying NSPCC flags, raising awareness for NSPCC Jersey.

    For children facing abuse, the winter nights are dark, long and lonely.
    That’s why we’re encouraging friends, families and colleagues to walk 5k (Walk for Children) and raise money amongst the longest nights of the year.

    The NSPCC’s Childline received a call from a child around every 25 seconds at Christmas time. Calls about abuse, neglect, self-harm and anxiety – things no child should have to deal with. By joining in, every step participants take and every pound that they raise will help us be here for all children, even on the darkest nights this winter.

    We’re encouraging you to Walk for Children and spot our Light Ups with friends and family, donating to NSPCC Jersey.
    We can’t wait to see the Island show its support for children with this event.

    ? When is the walk?
    Any date that works for you, but do it between 30th January and 3rd February and you can tie in seeing our local Light Ups!

    ? Where is it?
    Plan your own 5k route to suit you. Check out our beautiful Jersey map, with info below for some suggestions to tie in the Light Ups on your walk. Do an organised trail, a loop from your house, or plan your own route – the choices are endless.

    ? Why are we walking?
    Children need to know that we’re here for them, even on the darkest nights. Walk 5k and raise vital funds so we can make sure no call goes unanswered.

    ? How much should I raise? We’ll be grateful for any amount you can raise to goes towards our vital work.

    ? Questions? Check out our FAQ’s.

    NSPCC Jersey raises funds for our local services we provide on Island. But Islanders can, and do, access Childline free of charge – which is funded by our National Childline funding.
    You can donate to Childline, or NSPCC Jersey.


    To sign up and donate to Childline (Nationally) use this link: Walk for Children | NSPCC using code ‘COMMUNITY’, for £1 registration.To donate directly to NSPCC Jersey, donate on this JustGiving page.
