Accuro Jersey Triathlon 2025

The Accuro Jersey Triathlon 2025 marks ten years of Accuro’s sponsorship of this iconic annual event on the island.

Accuro is excited to announce its continued sponsorship of the annual Jersey Triathlon for the tenth consecutive year. The event, which takes place on Sunday 13 July 2025, brings together athletes of all levels, families, and corporate teams for a day of fun, fitness, and community support.

Here’s everything you need to know…

Intense but accessible

The Accuro Jersey Triathlon operates five different race formats as well as a multi-distance Junior Triathlon. All formats provide for fast and thrilling races and are operated with equal enthusiasm and passion.

With a course set against the beautiful backdrop of the island of Jersey, the event continues to welcome both local and international athletes to take the challenge and experience the island.

Beyond the competition

The event provides a unique opportunity for team building, family participation, and raising funds for the official charity partner, Brighter Futures – a local Jersey-based charity that supports parents, families, and young people in Jersey by offering programs and services focused on parent-child relationships, positive mental health and wellbeing, and second-chance learning.

Over £43,500 has been raised for various different charities based in the community across the 10 years including; Oscar Maclean, Mind Jersey, Silkworth Lodge, Little Feet, Brightly, JAA, Dementia Jersey, Every Child Our Future and Caring Cooks.

Going from strength to strength

When the event first started it saw around 100 participants and has grown exponentially over the past decade with almost 2,000 people taking part since the inception of the Accuro Jersey Triathlon.


Even Covid-19 could not stop the triathlon from going ahead, as the event pivoted to a virtual challenge in the wake of the pandemic. New categories have also been introduced as the event has expanded, with an ‘aqua bike’ category being added in 2024 and a junior intro category this year.

Here’s what past competitors had to say…

“The triathlon offers something for everyone — whether it is families enjoying a day out together or teams strengthening their bond through friendly competition. We’re especially proud to be supporting Brighter Futures and are looking forward to another memorable day of fun, friendship and fundraising.” Paul Douglas, Managing Director for Accuro’s Jersey office.

“The triathlon was a real test of perseverance and determination, but it was all worth it to cross the finishing line knowing the effort I had put in throughout training in the build up to the event and also on the day. It is mentally and physically demanding, but the feeling of accomplishment when you achieve your goal is indescribable. I would recommend anyone to give it a go and challenge yourself.”

April Hamel, participant in the 2024 Accuro Jersey Triathlon

Accuro’s forward-thinking business practices recognised by STEP Award

Award for Accuro

Accuro is proud to announce its fourth win of the prestigious Trust Company of the Year (midsize firm) category at the STEP Private Client Awards 2021/22. Accuro has been shortlisted for the award every year since its inception in 2017, taking home the prize four out of the last five years.

Hosted by STEP, the global professional association that promotes excellence for private client professionals, this year’s virtual award ceremony took place on the 23rd September 2021.

STEP subjects all nominees to a rigorous judging process that considers their performance, values and contributions. Its awards are highly-coveted and are the top private client industry accolade.

Accuro stands out in this industry as an independent, fully management-and-staff-owned business, leading the way as a positive force for families, society and the environment, committed to developing long-term relationships and long-term change.

Since its management buy-out in 2017, Accuro has demonstrated its willingness to challenge the status quo and set a new standard in the industry. Attracting clients from across the globe and leading professionals to join its ranks, the business has grown organically into one which now operates from offices in Jersey, Geneva, Mauritius, and London. In 2021 Accuro has welcomed more new employees than ever before.

With a strong tradition of thought-leadership in the industry, a diverse client base, and a company structure that values and recognises the contributions of all staff members as integral to its overall success, Accuro truly lives up to its name: a trust company that cares.

The judges were impressed by Accuro’s focus on ‘values and client service’. In particular, they praised the support it provides its employees, its ownership model, its healthy annual growth figures and its commitment to its values. This includes legally binding changes to its articles of association committing to having a positive impact on society and the environment.

Accuro’s CEO, Xavier Isaac, commented: « The words of the Presiding judges are particularly pleasing because they recognise the relentless efforts of our staff in their pursuit of excellence in client services, while praising at the same time Accuro for applying more sustainable and forward-thinking business practices.”
