of The Jersey National Park

the Park’s first Board of Directors are comprised of many of the Island’s leading charities and institutions. Having full and official JNP representation are The National Trust for Jersey, Jersey Heritage, Société Jersiaise, the Royal Jersey Agricultural & Horticultural Society, Jersey Diary, Nurture Ecology, Jersey Marine Conservation and an architectural representative for the Built Environment.

Island interests covered by such strong representations include the natural environment, cultural history, agriculture, biodiversity and the marine and built environment, a truly comprehensive gathering that offers many mutually beneficial opportunities.

It is envisaged that while such strong partnerships will assist in the promotion of the national park, it will also develop a powerfully collective voice when seeking and increasing further protection of the Island’s most precious attributes.

By far the most significant expanse of land mass within the Parks official designation is the great sweep of open landscape in St Ouen’s Bay. It is here, through a combination of protective and visionary intent, that the Board of Directors will have an opportunity to earnestly approach and collectively process a number of environmental and cultural challenges.
