About Carolyn Scott

This past year I have challenged myself to swim in the sea every week through all the seasons and I have loved it - mostly! Each week we go to the same bays and there are so many bags I have never visited despite liv in Jersey most of my life. The 30 bays summer challenge was an opportunity for me to explore the island and try to raise a bit of money for Jersey Hospice who cared so beautifully for my mum in her final days, I’m thrilled that I have completed the challenge and would be incredibly grateful if anyone would like to contribute to the fantastic cause. Thank you �

Fundraising Information

This fundraising page benefits the following good causes:


Jersey Hospice Care

Jersey Hospice Care is the Island’s only hospice – providing specialist palliative care for people with life-limiting conditions. Services include the Specialist Palliative Care Team – who support people at home, in hospital, and in care homes, an In Patient Unit providing a home away from home, educational programmes, complementary therapy, emotional, spiritual and faith support, and community bereavement services. Jersey Hospice Care is an independent charity, providing all its services without a charge to patients. It costs £22,000 a day to run – funded mainly by the generosity of Islanders. This comes in the form of donations, fundraising, and sales in our charity shops, as well as through the outstanding work of the dedicated volunteers who give their time and skills to keep Hospice running.

National Trust for Jersey

Celebrating its 90th Anniversary in 2026, the National Trust for Jersey, an independent, self-funding charity, is a proud and steadfast guardian of Jersey's wild and unique spaces.  

With its dramatic coastline, rich marine environment, distinctive vernacular architecture, and hedge lined country lanes, Jersey retains a strong sense of place, identity and above all, beauty. But these qualities are always at risk, now more than ever.

Threats from unsuitable development, creeping urbanisation, unsustainable farming practices and short term economic policies have resulted in a serious decline in wildlife and the poorer health of our environment. Tranquillity is becoming increasingly precious.

The National Trust seeks to champion and protect the distinctive elements that make Jersey 'Jersey', so that they remain at the very heart of Island life. We do this through an incredible programme of cultural events, practising sustainable management led by expert conservationists and by promoting and increasing awareness of the value of our marine spaces, countryside and historic environment to all Islanders. 

From coastline and cliff paths, woodlands and wetlands, meadows and marshes, as well as managing nearly 40 historical properties, the National Trust will never give up on our irreplaceable nature and rich heritage. 

By supporting our work, you ensure that Jersey is preserved and protected not just for today, but for generations to come.
