About Kidney Research UK:
Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.
At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.
Over the last ten years we have invested more than £65 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.
Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.
Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.

Post: Fundraising Coordinator
Based: The Little Hearts Matter office based in Birmingham

Responsible to: Fundraising Manager
Salary: £22,000 to £24,000 per annum pro rata
Hours: 35 hours per week
Annual Leave: 25 days plus Bank holidays per annum
This year, and every year, as many as 600 families in the UK will learn that their child has only half a working heart. These children have one of the most complex of all heart conditions, and there is no cure. Families in this situation need care and support to understand the information, make important treatment decisions, and meet the everyday challenges of living with half a heart.
That is why Little Hearts Matter exists. We wrap a blanket of understanding and care around families at every stage of their half a heart journey. We are always here when they need us.
Without donations, Little Hearts Matter would not be able to offer our services, free of charge, to support individuals and families across the UK. We do not receive any government funding for our work. Our fundraising team is essential to raising these vital funds—over £500,000 annually. Your role as Fundraising Coordinator is crucial in helping us achieve this goal.
In this role, you will support the fundraising team in carrying out administrative tasks that are key to the success of our fundraising efforts. This includes managing our donor database, processing donations, supporting community and corporate fundraising activities, and contributing to campaigns and events. You will work closely with our Fundraising Manager and the rest of the team to ensure the smooth running of day-to-day operations, making it easier for us to continue offering vital support to families.
In Your First Three Months:
- You will gain a deep understanding of Little Hearts Matter’s work and the needs of our supporters.
- You will assist in building relationships with key donors, supporters, and fundraising partners.
- You will help develop the systems and processes necessary to keep the fundraising efforts organised and efficient.
By the End of Your First Year:
- You will have played a key role in supporting and administering fundraising activities, including donor stewardship, community engagement, and corporate partnerships.
- You will have helped ensure that we have an up-to-date, efficient database to track donations, manage relationships, and analyse fundraising results.
- You will have contributed to the growth of our community fundraising, appeals portfolio, and partnerships, providing ongoing support to increase donations.
- You will have worked collaboratively with the team to improve the visibility and impact of Little Hearts Matter, ensuring that we can continue our essential work well into the future.
As a small charity, we rely on every member of our team to support and strengthen our fundraising efforts. Your work will directly contribute to the care and support we provide to families facing incredibly challenging circumstances. With your help, Little Hearts Matter will be able to continue supporting families affected by complex heart conditions and ensure that no family faces this journey alone.
About Little Hearts Matter
Little Hearts Matter (LHM) is a national charity with over 7000 members. We are the only charity in the UK that offers support and information to, and represents the needs of, children and families following a diagnosis of single ventricle heart disease (half a working heart). These congenital cardiac conditions can never be cured, even following repeated surgery, so the children must learn to live within the restrictions that their disability and fears for their future create.
Little Hearts Matter is there from the time parents learn of their child’s condition, through risk-filled treatment into a challenged-filled life at home. LHM is there to support the children, and their families, through their hopes and aspirations and the gradual realisation that they will never have the same life as their peers. Our aims are to:
Alleviate isolation by offering support, friendship and understanding from the time a diagnosis is made, through treatment decisions, hospital care and into life at home, eventually introducing parents and patients to other families who have similar experiences and shared concerns helping them to build a network of support.
Reduce fear by offering patients, parents, siblings, and the extended family a greater opportunity to understand the diagnosis and treatment paths available.
Reduce confusion and a lack of understanding by producing and supplying for free, user focused information that supports and aids understanding from the time of diagnosis, through treatments and into life at home.
Raise a greater awareness within Medical, Educational, Social and Governmental circles of the needs of children, and their families, as they travel through every stage of their lives.
Role Purpose:
This important role is vital to the continued growth of Little Hearts Matter’s fundraising activities and the sustainability of our services.
As Fundraising Coordinator, you will play a key part in supporting the fundraising team to secure and manage donations, ensuring the smooth running of campaigns, appeals, and donor communications. Working closely with the Fundraising Manager and other team members, you will help ensure the charity meets its annual fundraising target of over £400,000, generated through a diverse mix of member fundraising, community campaigns, and appeals.
You will be involved in administrative tasks that support the broader fundraising strategy, including donor stewardship, event coordination, and maintaining accurate records within the donor database. Your efforts will directly contribute to raising vital funds for Little Hearts Matter and helping us continue to provide free, vital services for families affected by complex heart conditions.
Key Responsibilities:
- Carry out the fundraising team’s essential administrative tasks, including maintaining accurate records in the donor database
- Maintain and update the donor database, ensuring records are accurate and up-to-date.
- Process donations and prepare receipts and acknowledgements in a timely and personalised manner.
- Provide administrative support for fundraising events and campaigns, including booking venues and organising materials.

- Assist with the planning and delivery of fundraising appeals by coordinating mailouts, event logistics, and donor communications.
- Contribute fun and engaging fundraising ideas tailored to the charity’s membership, their local community, and LHM’s general supporters, taking into account the limited resources of a small charity.
- Liaise with Office Manager to reconcile donations and monitor budgets.
- Ensure compliance with GDPR, Gift Aid, and fundraising regulations.
- Support the preparation of reports for donors, trustees, and internal meetings.

Stroke Association
Finding strength through support
When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.
We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.
We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.
The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families. We provide tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year. This support includes one-to-one and group support, funding vital scientific research into stroke prevention, acute treatment, recovery and long-term care, and campaigning to secure the best care for everyone affected by stroke.
We’re here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.
It’s only thanks to the generosity of our supporters and donors that we can provide vital support.
We’re working to improve the diversity of our people. We know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for all those affected by stroke.
We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. We’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke, and those from under-represented communities.
You may also have experience in areas such as Fundraising, Fundraiser, Fundraising Officer, Fundraising Executive, Fundraising Assistant, Fundraising Operations, Operations Assistant, Operations Officer, Fundraising Operations Executive, Fundraising Operations Assistant.
