Each year the trustees choose local charities to benefit from the funds raised through the Island Walk, whether that be from the entry fees or the sponsorship received.
The Trustee try to split the causes that they help, whether that be elderly/health, children/sport, environment or animals. Since inception over £2.9m has been raised with all the money going to local Jersey charities. All the money raised is redistributed to the designated charities with the costs being funded by the sponsors, currently TMF Group. All the Trustees, Organisation committee and supporters on the day give their time for free and there are no salaried individuals.
