Your Role:

As our Fundraising Manager, you will develop and implement robust fundraising for the charity growing our income through existing and new fundraising streams.  One of our initial ambitions is to implement an individual giving programme as well as build community and challenge event fundraising.  It’s a varied and rewarding role where you will contribute to the charity’s continued success.
