Guernsey Responds

Within twenty four hours of the launch at Government House, through the generosity of several key benefactors and the response from a wide range of the community, the RGLI have raised over £100,000 in pledges and donations which provides 20% of the overall costs needed to complete Number 16 Rue Verte and transform this to a cultural, education and accommodation centre.

"I speak for all of us in the RGLI to express our gratitude and delight at the level of resonse from our community" sad Chris Oliver "It is both wonderful and humbling, and to say how deep the public connect with this history that links families together".

"It is such a positive endorsement for all of us in the RGLI an encourages the team to push to get this work done, with a clear reminder of how our community can come together even in difficult times".
