Delivering on a promise

Funds towards the construction of a dairy farm on Sark were given a boost recently when £4,067.79 was raised by an online promises auction. Originally the auction was due to take place on 7th February during a Sunday lunch at a restaurant on Sark but it had to be cancelled when the Bailiwick went into lockdown.  Organiser, Jan Guy, was disappointed having had some really good promises donated by residents and businesses on Sark and in Jersey and Guernsey. “We had 24 promises to auction,” Jan explains, “ranging from sailing trips, a horse and carriage tour, a visit to Creux Mahie caves, home-made cakes and wine. Our new dairy farmers promised some of their lovely cheeses as well as the chance to be a dairy farmer for the afternoon. We didn’t want these to go to waste so decided to put the auction online instead, asking people to bid by email. The result has been amazing and far exceeded what I hoped we would raise.”

One of the promises was three lots of finest manure donated by Sark’s resident donkeys, Florence and Ruby. (The picture shows one lot being delivered to Wendy Kiernan.)

A further £1,164 was raised for the project by a jumble sale and coffee afternoon. (There’s a picture of the jumble team led by Caragh just before the doors opened.)

Donations can be made to the Sark Community Dairy Trust through the Crowd Funder website at www.crowdfunder.co.uk/sark-dairy
