Why support the Gurkha's in Nepal? Gurkha's defended our freedom and liberty during two World Wars and many other conflicts, fighting alongside British soldiers. Unlike the regular Army Gurkha's don't receive any Army pension and rely on our support. The 2015 earthquake in Nepal devastated their infrastructure and this county remains amongst the poorest in the world. In August 2017 Nepalese villages suffered from floods. From many Nepalese villages it requires a two-day hike to reach any medical centre, needless to say unfortunately many don't make it back to their homes. GWTJ was formed in 2014 to honour the Island’s unique relationship with one of the British Army’s most respected regiments. There are known to be at least nine ex-British Army officers living in Jersey who served with Gurkha units. GWTJ works closely with the Gurkha Welfare Trust UK, the leading Gurkha welfare charity, relieving poverty and distress among retired Gurkha soldiers and their families. The Jersey Overseas Aid Commission generously donates another £1 for every £1 raised, doubling your support. We have no administrative overheads and no paid employees or paid Trustees, so all funds raised go directly to the Gurkhas.

Celebrated its 250th Anniversary in 2014 Heptonstall Methodist Church is an unusual octagonal chapel building, historically significant as it's been in continuous use since 1764, making it the world's oldest Methodist Church. The octagonal design follows the theory that this shape left the devil no corners to hide in. The chapel is open every day and can be found tucked away off Northgate in the centre of the historic village of Heptonstall. Services are held at 10:45am each Sunday and you can be assured of a warm welcome. The historic significance of the chapel in Heptonstall is that it signifies the start of Methodism moving indoors. The need to avoid bad weather meant that early chapels, such as Heptonstall, were really only tools for preaching. Pure functionality was the driving force behind this unique building which uses simple materials in a pared down but beautiful design. The chapel remains a fine example of a very early Methodist building, which inevitably requires expensive ongoing upkeep. The chapel’s story actually started in 1742, which was 22-years before there was even a chapel stone in the ground. William Darney travelled from Scotland and preached throughout the area building up a large number of societies on both sides of the Pennines. The Heptonstall society grew significantly and had frequent visits from both Charles and John Wesley. These visits always attracted large crowds and led to the decision to build Heptonstall chapel. John Wesley laid the foundation stone in 1764 and preached in the unfinished shell and again two years later after the roof had been added. In Dr Richard Taylor’s BBC Four series “Churches: How to read them” he named Heptonstall Methodist Church as one of his ten favourite churches, saying: “If buildings have an aura, this one radiated friendship.” It follows that you will always be very welcome to visit and your support towards ongoing maintenance costs will be greatly appreciated. You can support us by either making a regular donation or a one-off gift by following the links on this site. Collect a phone/cartridge recycling envelope when you visit.
