The staff of Fairbairn Private Bank, working in the bank’s Isle of Man and Jersey offices, have been busy raising money for four good causes.

Through a wide range of fundraising schemes, including a monthly staff draw, sports sponsorships, themed social events, book sales, cake sales and dress down days, an impressive total of £7,600 has been raised over the course of a year.

The money has been split equally between four staff-nominated charities: Hospice Isle of Man, Isle of Man Anti-Cancer Association, Jersey Friends of the Anthony Nolan Trust and BallaAfrica.

Whilst the former three charities do an outstanding job in supporting the local communities on the Isle of Man and Jersey, the latter charity provides assistance further afield and is supporting aids orphans and other people in poverty stricken areas of South Africa. 

Andrew Halsall and Rebecca Laforey, from Fairbairn Private Bank, presented the three Isle of Man based charities with the cheques on behalf of all the staff.
