Overview

Clubs and charities run on goodwill and small budgets. A website should not eat into either. It should make the committee's job easier and help the cause reach more people across the island.

We build a clear home for your group, with news, events and member information in one place, and we keep it running so volunteers can focus on the work that matters, not the tech.

Ideal for: Charities, sports clubs, societies, associations and community organisations in Jersey.

Questions

Common questions

Do you offer a charity discount?

Yes. Jersey charities and not-for-profit groups get a discount on our work, and we confirm your price in writing before anything starts. Charities can also get a free .org.je domain from the Channel Isles registry.

We are run by volunteers. Is it hard to maintain?

No. We look after the site for you. Email or WhatsApp us updates whenever you have them and we take care of the rest. No technical knowledge needed.

Can we take donations online?

Yes. We can link to your existing donation platform, or point visitors to a payment method that works for you.

Can we list upcoming events?

Yes. An events page is easy to include and we can update it whenever your committee has new fixtures, fundraisers or socials to publish.

Can we embed social media feeds?

Yes. If your group is active on Facebook or Instagram, we can pull in recent posts so the site stays current without extra work.

Can we call ourselves a charity on the website?

Only if you are on the Jersey Charity Commissioner’s register. For a Jersey organisation, using the word “charity” without being registered is an offence. Clubs and societies that are not registered can describe themselves as not-for-profit or community groups instead.

Can we sell raffle tickets through the website?

Yes, within the Jersey Gambling Commission’s rules. Small lotteries are exempt, larger ones need a registration or a permit, and online sales need age and residency checks, clear terms and conditions and your registration or permit number on show.

In their words

What clients say

Jersey Web gave Waifs & Strays a website that feels as warm as the work we do. People can see how adoption works, meet our cats and ask about one in a few taps, and every way to support us is set out simply, from a donation to our Amazon wishlist. They understood what a small, volunteer-run rescue needs, and they were patient and easy to work with throughout. I would recommend them to any charity or community group.

We had over fifty years of history and nowhere sensible to put it online. Jersey Web gave us one place where clubs, events and news actually make sense to a visitor. Members find what they need without ringing us first.

Teaching bridge online means the website has to do the explaining before anyone books. The course structure is clear now, the lessons are easy to reach, and I spend less time answering the same questions by email.

Jersey Sports Council: what they do with the site we built

The job. The island’s sports council needed one home for its member clubs, events and news that a volunteer committee could keep up to date themselves.

What we built. A clubs and associations directory across six activity categories, an events calendar, news, and awards and AGM pages, all run by the committee.

  • 80News stories the Council’s committee has published themselves since December 2025
  • 157Events added to the island’s sports calendar
  • 41Clubs and associations listed, across six activity categories
  • 20Pages celebrating the Council’s annual sports awards

Counted on jerseysportscouncil.com (opens in a new tab) on 2 October 2026. Taken from the site’s sitemaps and public news feed. These show how the Council uses the site, not sales or search figures.

Worth knowing

The Jersey rules a charity or club website should respect

Registering as a charity in Jersey is voluntary, but it decides what you can call yourself. Under the Charities (Jersey) Law 2014 (opens in a new tab), a Jersey organisation that is not on the Charity Commissioner’s (opens in a new tab) register must not describe itself as a “charity”, and “Jersey charity” is reserved for registered charities run mainly from the island. Registration also unlocks the tax reliefs. The public register shows your registration number, so we put it in the footer, where a donor can check it in seconds.

Online raffles and prize draws are regulated by the Jersey Gambling Commission (opens in a new tab). Lotteries with prizes of £1,500 or less, no more than three a year, are exempt. Bigger ones need a registration, and those over £12,000 an event or £30,000 a year need a permit. Selling tickets online is allowed: for registered lotteries the Commission recommends checking buyers are 18 or over and live in Jersey, permit lotteries must verify both with ID software, and in every case the terms and conditions should be easy to find, the registration or permit number shown, and the advertising never aimed at children.

Street and house-to-house collections need permission from the Bailiff and the Parish, and what you say about where donations go has to be accurate. Like any organisation that holds members’ details, you also need to register with the JOIC (opens in a new tab). Registered charities do not pay the fee, and the JOIC can confirm whether a club qualifies for the same exemption.

Clubs that work with children have one more job. Jersey Sport (opens in a new tab) recommends a named welfare officer, a safeguarding policy and reporting procedure, DBS checks for coaches and volunteers, and rules on photographs and social media. Put the welfare officer’s contact and the policy on the website, where parents look for them, with the route for reporting a concern: the Children and Families Hub on 01534 519000.
