Noted overweight man Mark is going to do a 5k for RBC Race for the Kids, on september 21, to raise money for the Jersey Child Care Trust:

80% of our brain development occurs by the age of three years. It is crucial that children have their best start in life. We focus on enabling access, tackling poverty and improving quality for children and families.

Our mission is that by putting families first, we deliver programmes to enable all children to have their best start. It is our vision that every child in Jersey has the access to the nurture, care and learning they need to thrive.

"The JCCT have been nothing short of a lifeline to our daughter. Its amazing work and even more amazing staff have allowed her to begin her education journey like every child should be able to. We are so grateful for all they have done for her, and by extension our family." - Parent
