Swimarathon - Jersey

Ravenscroft has been the principal sponsor of the annual Jersey Swimarathon, which is organised by the Lions Club of Jersey, since 2019. The Jersey Swimarathon is the island’s largest sporting fundraiser and each year more than 3,500 swimmers take part in the five-day event, which raises money for a number of chosen beneficiaries and allows the Lions Club to continue its support of charitable causes and islanders in need.

Following the 2019 event, Ravenscroft made a three-year commitment to be the main sponsor of the Jersey Swimarathon from 2020-2022. This has now been extended and Ravenscroft will continue its support to the event for a further three years.

This year the 51st Swimarathon saw thousands of swimmers from schools, businesses, community groups and sports teams take part. The event raised £95,000 in support of three major local food banks – the Grace Trust, the Salvation Army and the Society of St Vincent de Paul.
