Above all, you’ll play a central role in ensuring every supporter feels valued, inspired and connected to the real-world impact of their support.
Why This Role Is Special
· Own a product – this lottery is newly launched, with huge potential for growth
· You’ll scale at pace – with senior buy-in, investment and ambitious income targets
· You’ll see tangible impact – your work will directly support frontline NHS care across three hospitals

GrowTH is a non-denominational Christian charity, which works in partnership with evangelical churches from a variety of backgrounds within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
GrowTH seeks to share God’s love with its homeless neighbours in word and deed. So, alongside receiving practical care and help, all GrowTH guests have the opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus and to explore the Christian faith, if they wish.
GrowTH, has four main projects that make up the charity’s activities. They are as follows:
- Night Shelter: provides volunteer-run winter shelter in Tower Hamlets from October to April each year. Homeless men and women are referred to GrowTH by local homeless agencies. Once accepted into the shelter, guests receive a warm welcome, a hot evening meal, a safe bed for the night, and breakfast in the morning. The resettlement support there provides every guest in the shelter with one-to-one support from GrowTH’s two Advocate Workers to help them move out of homelessness, with the aim of resettling them into stable accommodation. We accommodate up to 15 Guests in the Shelter each night, and typically shelter around 150 Guests each season.

The house provides an opportunity for men seeking a fresh start to confront deep rooted issues impacting their lives, within a safe, loving, disciplined and family environment.
