Luncheon

Wed, May 5th 2021 at 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

Speakers: Angus Bodman & Stuart Perfitt
Subject: GROW Limited redevelopment plan & the fund raising challenges


GROW Limited is a Guernsey Charity focused upon the needs of the island's learning disabled. Established some 35 years ago as a subsidiary of Guernsey Mencap, their six full-time staff provide training and care to some 25 attendees. The focus of GROW Limited is on preparing the learning-disabled for the world of work.

To make best use of its site and skills GROW needs to expand, broaden and upgrade its operations. To this end they have prepared a comprehensive redevelopment plan which has now received planning permission. The estimated total cost will be circa £2.5m and take 18 months to complete.

GROW has launched a fund-raising campaign with an initial focus on large Trusts, NGOs and major gift donors before broadening the appeal to embrace the entire island population. The presentation will explain the background to their work, the need for this comprehensive redevelopment and the anticipated outcome.
