2025 Liberation Day Sponsors
Liberation Day is a time to commemorate the islands’ freedom from the German Occupation during World War II.
Our sponsors help us to bring Liberation Day to life and are key to making the day a success.
See below for more information on our 2025 sponsors and how they are supporting one of the most important days in Guernsey's calendar.
CAVALCADE
This year’s Cavalcade is being supported by Rok . ‘We’re excited and proud to be sponsoring this year’s cavalcade, which plays such an important part in the Liberation celebrations for so many people.’ said Kevan Nelson, Director at Rok. ‘Guernsey’s occupation and liberation is such a significant part in the island’s history and with all the visiting vehicles and the opportunity for the community to take part it promises to be a very fitting and special celebration.’
RESIDENTIAL HAMPERS
This year's Residential Hampers are being supported by Howden. Sophie Jones, Client Director at Howden, shared her pride in sponsoring the initiative: ‘Having lived in Guernsey, I understand just how important Liberation Day is, especially for this historic 80th anniversary.

Through our partnership with SPF, we are deeply committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work.’
Pierre Blampied, Managing Director of SPF Guernsey, added: ‘Being part of the 80th anniversary celebrations is incredibly important to us. Liberation Day is a day of profound reflection - a time to commemorate and honour the generation whose lives were shaped by the war and its aftermath. Howden shares our commitment to supporting the community, and we are proud to play a role in this meaningful initiative.’
TEA TENT
Sponsored by The Old Government House Hotel & Spa and supporting GROW Limited, the tea tent will serve two purposes throughout the day, catering for all ages.
General Manager of the Old Government House Hotel, Andrew Chantrell, said: ‘Liberation Day is about coming together to celebrate and remember Guernsey’s history. In honour of collaborating, we are very much looking forward to inviting the GROW team into the OGH kitchens to jointly make the scones and cakes as part of the preparations and to running the tent with them on the day.’
INDIVIDUAL HAMPERS
Sponsored by Collas Crill LLP for the third year, the hampers will be given to islanders who remained in Guernsey during the occupation or who were evacuated during the Second World War.
Gareth Bell, Guernsey Managing Partner at Collas Crill added: ‘We’re thrilled to support the Guernsey hampers once again as we remember a key part of our island’s history. Our team loves being part of this special project and we look forward to meeting some of the island’s residents and hearing their tales of the Occupation and evacuation.
