Guernsey accountancy opens thousands of new branches (kind of)

Volunteers from a Guernsey firm of accountants have planted 40 trees at Delancey Park to mark the firm’s 40th anniversary in the island.

More than 25 members of staff from Saffery Champness and their families, along with volunteers from Guernsey Trees for Life, helped plant 11 large small-leafed Limes along the avenue with a further 29 small trees including English Oak, Hawthorn, wild Cherry, Crab Apple and small leafed Limes in a woodland area.

Saffery Champness Guernsey MD, Nick Batiste, said: “We are proud of our 40 year heritage and are committed to supporting the community in which we work. Delancey Park is a key part of community life and, with it being in our parish and so close to our offices, creating something that adds lasting benefits to the park and its visitors was the perfect way to mark our 40th anniversary in Guernsey.”

In 2011, the firm donated funds for the development of the sensory gardens at the park and has regularly supported the Rotary Club with volunteers to help tidy up the area for the winter months.

The firm also assisted with the funding for a defibrillator to be installed at the Guernsey College of Further Education’s site next to the park.

Guernsey Trees for Life secretary, Andy McCutcheon, said: “It’s good to see local firms giving back to the community and I’m really pleased that Saffery Champness has chosen the planting of trees at Delancey Park as their way of giving. In doing so they have recognised the important role trees play in supporting and protecting our environment.”

“As well as improving the park further for human visitors, the trees will really help to enhance the space as a habitat for local wildlife. It’s wonderful to think of the trees growing and flourishing and being enjoyed by the public for years to come.”
