Change Mental Health is a leading national mental health charity providing unique support to people with severe and enduring mental ill health. With over 50 years’ experience across Scotland, they believe people affected by poor mental health and illness deserve the highest quality of support in the community and that every person has the right to be valued and to share in the opportunities, challenges, and joys of everyday life. 

The charity’s goal is to change mental health services for the better: to make them more accessible, more people centered and of a higher quality. Change Mental Health want to do exactly what their name suggests; to change the stigma around mental health and mental illness, so that more people can access the support they need. 

Fundraising at Change Mental Health is highly relational and deeply people‑focused. This brand new Fundraiser role offers the chance to build meaningful relationships with supporters, volunteers, community groups and businesses, many of whom are motivated by personal connections to mental health. Each week in the Fundraiser role will be different, and much of the role takes place outside the office, including attending events, meeting fundraisers, visiting corporate partners and representing Change Mental Health across Scotland.

This role could suit someone with experience within a fundraising team who is looking to broaden their scope, work in a national charity or work for a cause thats positively impacting mental health.

Help people remember, celebrate and give in meaningful ways

At Trinity Hospice, we believe in providing compassionate care not only for patients, but also for the families and loved ones around them. For more than 40 years, we’ve supported communities across Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre, offering care, comfort and guidance at some of life’s most difficult times.

We are looking for a thoughtful and dedicated In Memory Officer to join our Fundraising and Communications Team. This is a deeply meaningful role, offering the opportunity to shape how we support people to remember and celebrate those who matter most to them, while helping to generate vital income for our hospice services.

In this role, you will lead the delivery and development of our in-memory fundraising programme, creating compassionate and engaging ways for supporters to honour loved ones. You will take ownership of key initiatives such as Light up a Life and Memory Meadow, while also exploring new opportunities for people to connect, remember and give. Alongside this, you will play a central role in shaping our bereavement communications, ensuring supporters receive thoughtful, timely and sensitive engagement throughout their journey. 

This position brings together creativity, organisation and empathy. You will be confident managing multiple projects, using data and insight to inform your work, and delivering high-quality communications across a range of channels. Just as importantly, you will have the emotional intelligence and judgement needed to work in sensitive situations, ensuring every interaction reflects the care and compassion at the heart of Trinity Hospice.

Collaboration is key to success in this role. You will work closely with colleagues across fundraising, communications and clinical teams, as well as building relationships within the local community, including funeral directors and supporters. Together, you will help create a seamless and supportive experience for bereaved families while growing a sustainable and impactful in memory giving programme.

Joining Trinity Hospice means becoming part of a team where your work has real impact. We are committed to helping our people develop and thrive, offering opportunities for learning and a range of wellbeing and staff benefits.

This is more than a fundraising role, it is an opportunity to make a lasting difference. Through your work, you will help people remember loved ones in meaningful ways, while ensuring we can continue to provide compassionate care to those who need us most.
