Help tackle loneliness among older people in care homes
Thousands of older people living in care homes receive few or no visitors. Friends for Life Bedfordshire exists to change that.
Through our befriending and group activities, we bring companionship, connection and meaningful relationships to care home residents across Bedford and the surrounding area.
We are now looking for a Fundraising Lead to help secure and grow the income that makes this work possible.
About Friends for Life Bedfordshire
We are a Bedford-based charity working to address the social isolation of older residents in Bedfordshire’s care homes.
Founded in 2007, we have grown from a small local initiative to a registered charity with c90 volunteers supporting more than 30 care homes across Bedford Borough. In the last year, over 1,100 care home residents received our services.
The Role
This is a pivotal role for the charity. It is key to the delivery of our business plan and growth aspirations.
You will take ownership of fundraising and income generation, ensuring we have the resources to sustain and grow our impact.
You will lead on grant fundraising whilst also developing community and individual giving, and delivering engaging fundraising events.
This is a hands-on role in a small organisation, so you will have real ownership and visibility. You will shape our fundraising strategy and directly influence how many residents we can reach.
This role is suited to someone who is both strategic and practical — someone who can develop the fundraising strategy and the plan to deliver this, but is equally comfortable writing applications, building relationships and making things happen.

Fundraising Events
- Plan and deliver fundraising events (community and corporate), managing logistics, budgets and stakeholder coordination
- Work with Marketing, Partnerships & Activities Lead to promote events through social media and marketing platforms
- Ensure events are engaging, effective and financially successful
- Evaluate performance and improve future activity
Strategy, Compliance & Reporting
- Develop and deliver a clear fundraising strategy aligned to organisational goals
- Track performance against targets and provide insight
- Ensure all fundraising is compliant with regulations and best practice
- Represent the charity externally with confidence and credibility
About You
We are looking for someone who can take ownership of fundraising and produce results in a small, resource-constrained environment.
You will likely bring:
- Experience developing or contributing to a fundraising strategy
- Proven experience in fundraising, with a track record of generating income
- Strong experience in writing successful grant applications
- Experience of developing and growing income from community fundraising initiatives (e.g. partnerships, volunteer-led activities, individuals and events)
- Ability to build and manage relationships with funders, donors or partners
- Strong written communication skills — able to create compelling cases for support
- Ability to work independently, prioritise effectively and meet deadlines
- A proactive, resourceful approach — you don’t wait to be told what to do
- Comfortable balancing strategy with hands-on delivery
What We Offer
- £16.79 per hour (£18,334 per year for 21 hours per week)
- Employer pension
- Flexible and hybrid working
- A supportive and passionate team of staff, volunteers and trustees
- The chance to transform the lives of care home residents every single week
