We are involved in a number of areas; these are grouped under the following headings:

- Tourism and transport
- Economy and Environment
- Education and culture

You will find below a short report of the main projects and events in which we take part... Of course this list is far from being exhaustive.


General

The Maison de la Normandie et de la Manche aims at representing our region in the Channel Islands, including of course Guernsey. As we do not have any physical structure in Guernsey, it is even more important  to create strong links with the island and to maintain a collaboration which can only serve Guernsey and Normandy.



Tourism and transport

  • Concerning tourism, we collaborate as much as we can with the Tourist Offices of Jersey and of Guernsey by multiplying the joint actions and events.
  • We highlight the norman heritage and know-how, by fitting-out shop windows on various themes changing every three months (gastronomy, crafts, sites, etc…). Pictures of our current shop windows are available on the main page of the website.     

                                                                  

                    

You can see their timetables and book your tickets on their website. 



Economy & Environment

Projects are in progress for the moment and be sure we will let you know all the details as soon as we can.



Education, culture and sport

The Maison de la Normandie et de la Manche enhances cultural exchanges, with a view to promote french language and strengthen established traditions. For instance, we participate to the following projects:

  • Videoconferencing exchanges between schools of la Manche and Jersey
  • Organisation of a multisports tournament between Jersey and la Manche, in Jersey, in April 2012



Communication

La Maison de la Normandie et de la Manche communicates as much as possible! Our communication mainly aims to inform Jersey and Guernsey people about the events in Normandy but we also inform Norman people with news from the Channel Islands. The medias we use are the following:

  • Redaction of a monthly newsletter "What's on in Normandy?"

Since 2010, we have been redacting every month a newsletter to inform Jersey and Guernsey people about the cultural, tourist and economic events in Normandy. You can download our last newsletter on the first page of our website or send us an e-mail if you would like to receive this newsletter monthly.

  • Redaction of a quarterly newsletter: "Golf courses in Normandy"

Since 2011, we have been redacting every three months a newsletter to inform Jersey and Guernsey people about the events irelated to Golf courses in Normandy. You can download our last newsletter on the first page of our website or send us an e-mail if you would like to receive this newsletter monthly.

  • Communication in the local press 

Every month, Aurélie Leroy, the manager of the Maison de la Normandie, writes an article for the Jersey Life magazine (800 words) and another one for the Town Crier magazine (150 words in French and in English). The publicated articles are available on our facebook page.

  • Facebook     

The Maison de la Normandie is now on facebook. You can follow us by clicking here: MNM Facebook     

  • Weekly show on France Bleue Cotentin

We are lucky to have a weekly show on France Bleu Cotentin called "Journal des Iles". This show lasts 2 minutes and we talk about the coming events in the Channel Islands or the activities we are developing between Normandy and the Channel Islands. You can listen to this show on Saturdays morning on 100.7 Mhz or directly on the website of the radio (link above). 

 

These are only the main and most regular actions of the Maison de Normandie. We also exchange regularly with local medias by sending them press release for instance or by performing interviews on the different radio stations.
