About Family Halsey/Crisp/Peck
We are fund raising in memory of Michael Halsey loving husband, father, father in law and grandfather and all round gentleman, who passed away suddenly following a stroke.
We are raising funds for two local Jersey charities Music in Action and Jersey Cheshire Homes.
Music was one of Mike’s greatest passions. He loved singing, the wonderful people he met and friendships he made performing in choirs at school as a boy, for local churches, Cantabile Jersey and the Jersey Gilbert and Sullivan Society.
It feels especially fitting to help Music in Action, a charity which Mike supported. He believed in their vision of bringing people of all ages and backgrounds together through music — inspiring creativity, connection, and wellbeing.
In March 2025, Mike gave his final public performance singing at a fundraiser concert for Jersey Cheshire Homes, the only residential facility in Jersey dedicated to caring for adults with disabilities, including those recovering from a stroke.
If you are able to, we would be so grateful for any donation you can give. All funds raised will be shared equally between the two charities in Mike’s memory.
Thank you for helping us honour Mike in a way that reflects his love of music, community, and compassion.

Jersey Cheshire Home is the only facility on the island caring solely for adults with disabilities.
The individuals we care for all have debilitating physical disabilities, this results in them no longer being able to live in their own home. Residents stay with us for as long as they need care with some long term residents being with us for tens of years. On occasion stays are shorter due to an individuals condition improving to such an extent they are able to return to live in their own home. It is always a pleasure for us to see a resident reach such a milestone.
Our Mission: To enhance the lives of islanders with disabilities.
Purpose: To provide a home, specialist care and advocacy for islanders with disabilities.
Our Vision: Jersey Cheshire Home is a centre of excellence for caring for the needs of islanders with disabilities.
