In which year did he become vice president of the National Trust for Jersey?
W: How did you first get involved with the National Trust for Jersey?
M’ I came to Jersey in 1958 after I was demobbed from national service in the RAF. I had an interest in wildlife throughout my teenage years, then when I moved here, the interest bloomed into a bit of a passion. I was instrumental in starting the Jersey Conservation Volunteers, and in starting up the Jersey Walking Group in 1978. Eventually, I became an interpretation and education officer for the environment department. That was in 1991, then I retired in 2000 and became quite heavily involved with the National Trust—as vice president of the National Trust for Jersey, chairman of the Coastline Campaign and chairman of the Lands Committee.
W: What is the Coastline Campaign and what does it hope to achieve?
M: It’s a public campaign to protect and preserve areas of Jersey’s coastline. Despite having improved planning control, Jersey’s coastline is still very vulnerable to inappropriate development. We’re aiming to restore and maintain the coastline and to protect coastal archaeology. We’ve also pledged that any land donated or acquired by the National Trust on behalf of the campaign will be treated as inalienable, so it can’t be sold or mortgaged at any point in the future.
W: How has the campaign progressed so far?
M: In our first year, we were concentrating very much on Jersey’s north coast. Since the campaign’s launch, the trust has acquired seven pieces of north coast land—four of these were gifts, two were acquisitions and one was gained from a management agreement with Jersey Water. Our latest piece of excellent news is that the Prince of Wales has accepted an invitation to become our patron—and champion of the campaign—for the next five years, which has been a fabulous start to 2007.
