Fundraising &

Bids Team

With major plans for greater impact, we need to be able to back our plans with funding. We need people who may have bid writing experience or people who are interested in raising funds for our charity to support our work.

Despite being entirely volunteer run as an organisation we need to raise significant funds to help people facing poverty. Just to note the distinction - fundraising means directly asking the public for donations, whereas bids mean putting in proposals (a bid) to organisations that provide grants - in many cases charities will get more of their funding from grants rather than donations, especially with the cost of living effecting donations.

Many people used to creating business and project plans may find themselves already well equipped to write bids. People with sales experience are often excellent fundraisers - but we are open to everyone interested in supporting us!

Please note for vetting reasons, we will require all sign ups to be based in the UK as we may need to carry out vetting to safeguard your role.
