Police dependants' Fund

The Jersey Police Dependants’ Fund

​

Background

 

The Jersey Police Dependants’ Trust was established in 1982 with an initial donation from the Butlin Family Charity Trust. JCF took over the management of the Trust in 2023 and has renamed the Fund "The Police Dependants' Fund". The Fund currently stands at £52,000 and is one of JCF’s restricted Themed Funds. The fund may be added to at any time with donations from the public.

​

The aim of the trust was to provide financial assistance to those in need within the following:

• Police Officers (paid or honorary)

• Dependants of a Police Officer or a deceased Police Officer

• Person who sustained an injury in rendering assistance to a Police Officer acting in the execution of their duty

• Dependant of any such person mentioned above (c) or any person who may have died (whether or not in consequence of any such injury)

 

(“Police Officer” means and includes, whether paid or honorary and whether serving or retired, of the Police Force in the Island of Jersey)

("Dependant" means an individual who is financially dependant on the qualifying individual)
