At JAC, we have always believed that small actions can create big impacts, and 2026 is no exception. This year, we are proud to announce two causes that sit at the heart of our Outreach programme: The AHOY Centre and TRIBE Freedom Foundation.

This year marks our 10th consecutive partnership with The AHOY Centre, a Deptford-based charity that transforms the lives of disadvantaged, at-risk, and disabled young people through water-based activities including sailing, rowing, and powerboating.

Once again, the JAC team will be taking to the River Thames for the summer rowing challenge, covering the iconic 8.5-mile course from Greenwich to Chelsea. We will be joined by two other teams joining, competing for the JAC Challenge CUP, and help AHOY raise even more funds. Three boats, one course, and plenty of team spirit.

Alongside our long-standing partnership with AHOY, we are also honoured to be supporting TRIBE Freedom Foundation for the first time. TRIBE Freedom Foundation is a charity dedicated to fighting modern slavery and human trafficking, funding frontline organisations that rescue survivors and restore lives. It is a cause that speaks to our values as a business and as a team, and we are proud to stand behind their important work.

Our Outreach programme reflects who we are as a company. It is not just about fundraising; it is about showing up, pulling together, and using whatever platform we have to make a difference. Whether on the water or beyond it, the JAC team is committed to both challenges wholeheartedly.

See you on the water!

Places She Shapes: The Event brought together an incredible community of women, leaders, and supporters to celebrate the power of women shaping the spaces around them. The evening highlighted how collaboration, courage, and leadership can create meaningful opportunities and drive real change.

Hiking England’s highest peak wasn’t just a challenge – it was a spectacle, as a team of fruit and vegetables conquered Scafell Pike, all to raise money for The Felix Project.

The weather gave us everything from wind and rain to brutal hail, but the energy and positivity carried us through, and there was no shortage of laughs along the way.

The Felix Project does incredible work redistributing surplus food, making sure good food reaches those who need it most instead of going to waste. Every step we took was to raise awareness and funds for their mission.

We’d love your support!
