Lantern Parade
St Peter Port
saturday 1st March
Over the past few months, the Community Arts Team at the Guernsey Arts Commission have been very busy holding free ‘lantern workshops’ for children, adults, school groups and the general public. Using willow, LED lighting, tissue paper and masking tape, each lantern took around two hours to make – but the hard work paid off on when all the lanterns were paraded through the streets of St Peter Port last month.

Waitrose
St Peter Port
March 2014
Waitrose, supermarket chain of the John Lewis Partnership, announced its annual bonus of 15% last month. Due to its unique co-owned business model, every employee that works for Waitrose received this percentage of their annual pay as a bonus. This was the third time that Partners in Guernsey received a bonus since the supermarket chain opened its two stores in Guernsey in early 2011. We captured some of the partners at Waitrose Admiral Park and Rohais as they gathered at each store to hear the branch managers unveil the bonus amount.
