Butterfield is inviting charities across the Channel Islands to apply for funding from its Charitable Trust.

This is only the second time the finance firm has granted money in this way having launched the Butterfield Charitable Trust in 2025.

Applications for the second round of funding is open now for registered charities to apply, until 31 March.

The Trust was set up to support local charitable initiatives which make a positive and lasting impact on the island, and focuses on projects which protect the environment, support the community and promote a more inclusive society.

More than £80,000 was awarded in 2025 to a range of recipients, including Headway Guernsey, St John, and Action for Children.
