Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Size of Wales is dedicated to nurturing an inclusive environment where employees can bring their full selves to work.

In 2020, we took steps to become an antiracist organisation and promote equality, diversity and inclusion. We are reviewing all our staff policies to be more inclusive.

Size of Wales is particularly keen to receive applications from people from an ethnically diverse background and disabled, deaf and neurodiverse people.  These are characteristics and identities that are currently underrepresented at Size of Wales. Furthermore, the work we do challenges modern day colonialism and discriminatory power structures that are prevalent in society and global solidarity work. Our work centres marginalised people’s voices and aims to remove barriers and increase access within the climate crisis. Having people with these identities and characteristics join the team would be invaluable and Size of Wales would become a better organisation because of this.

The RSPCA York, Harrogate & District Branch is seeking to increase its fundraising activity in order to secure the funding neccessary to completely rebuild the York Animal Home. We are looking to bring on an experienced individual to design, launch and lead our capital campaign and raise the remaining funds needed to complete the project.

The Capital Campaign Lead will take overall responsibility for planning, leading and delivering the £5m capital appeal over the next few years. This includes developing the case for support, managing campaign phases, cultivating major donors and funders, and ensuring strong governance, reporting and stewardship throughout the campaign.

The York Animal Home was built in 1980 and no longer meets modern welfare, licensing or operational requirements. Demand for our services is rising sharply, while the complexity and scale of cases continues to grow. We are at the point where our current animal facilities do meet our needs and have been working to redevelop the site and build new modern facilities.

We have received planning permission and are in the process of finalising the designs prior to construction beginning this year.

We expect Major donors, high-net worth individuals and corporate partnerships to make up the main elements of the fundraising campaign, so are looking for individuals with a proven track record of raising large sums in these areas.
