Children in Need 'Bike-a-thon' - £3,000 Raised!

I am very pleased to announce that we have raised an astonishing amount of money from last weeks Children In Need Fun day at Jacksons. The total for Jacksons Airport site is £1,562.58 from the Cake sale, Dress Down day, Bike-A-Thon and the collection buckets.
Motor-Mall also had collection buckets contributing £258.00. This brought the total to £1,820.58. And it got better - the Senior Management decided to round it up to a grand total of £3,000! Fantastic news.

A big thanks to all our staff who contributed money to this event by buying cakes and also those who sponsored their work colleagues who took part in the Bike-A-Thon with a special thanks to all those who took part in the cake baking - without your help and support we would not have achieved the amount of money we have raised.

Jacksons Guernsey Diamond Evening...

A well attended and 'Diamond Evening', at Jacksons Guernsey last Thursday, saw over 300 guests enjoying the opportunity to view and purchase stunning pieces from Ray and Scott jewellers.

With compimentary drinks, canapés and excellent live music from vocalist Lee, the annual event proved to be a great success.

There's going to be sparkle in someone's Christmas this year!

Ladies' Night

JACKSONS hosted a special ladies-only event last week, organised by women for women.
Recently appointed Mini and BMW sales executive Carly-Zia Davis welcomed the guests and shared hosting duties with Shani Clark, of Advisa Hepburn Financial Consultants, who was able to offer advice on investments and pensions.

After a champagne welcome and introduction, the ice was broken with a few games, taxing the brain with questions on statistics relating to women and identifying from a line-up of men what type of car they drove, to the fun and physical challenge of attempting to break the world record for how many people could be squeezed into a Mini. The record of 26 remained intact, but 16 was a pretty good effort. The evening ended with a fashion show presenting the latest trends by Ellis Collections.

Carly-Zia said: ‘It was an amazing evening. We had a really good turn-out and a relaxed and enjoyable time. The feedback has been very positive.
‘I wanted to get the message across that I am here to help and advise women when it comes to buying a car. This business is still male-dominated and some women customers would be more comfortable talking to and dealing with another woman.

‘Cars are more customisable than ever and I can help choose the right brand, design and trim level to suit individual wants and needs. I am genuinely dedicated to making sure a customer’s next purchase is

perfect.’

Carly-Zia said that the evening was likely to be repeated early next spring.

Bentley and Aston Martin Fundraiser...

BENTLEY and Aston Martin customers attended a charitable fundraiser with a difference last week with a dinner cooked by a Michelin-starred celebrity chef in the Jacksons showroom.

Having been picked up and chauffeur-driven to the event, the 24 invitees enjoyed Shaun Rankin’s tasting menu to the accompaniment of a harp recital in a showroom transformed into a dining room for the evening.

Also in attendance were two new Aston Martin DB9 models, the coupe and Volante, and the latest Bentley Continental GTC.

Said Jacksons general manager Charles Tennant: ‘Each of the invitees made a donation towards the Prostate Action charity and we raised over £2,500. Clearly it was not a traditional car dealer activity but it was our way of keeping in contact with customers. ‘The meal was excellent, we have had a lot of positive feedback and we have been able, with our customers, to help a worthy charity.’

At the other ends of the culinary spectrum, Jacksons recently hosted a ride-out displaying the latest BMW Motorrad bikes and new Husqvarna range of motorcycles when the many visitors were offered a bacon roll in exchange for a donation to the Headway charity. The event attracted hundreds of visitors and raised £260.
