No one enjoys medical procedures, least of all children. From facing everyday vaccinations to the most serious of surgeries and chronic conditions, all children experience varying degrees of apprehension and fear. Feeling scared, powerless, or anxious in healthcare settings doesn’t just trigger a child’s emotions; it can create traumas that impact treatment success and that can have a life-long impact. Starlight’s aim is to transform children’s health through better experiences, by putting play at the heart of every child’s healthcare.

Evidence shows that play in healthcare can reduce anxiety, fear and even pain; it helps children engage and prepare for their treatment and cope better with procedures; it minimises trauma and contributes to a better experience; and supports children to have some sense of agency and control in an environment where these opportunities are limited. Play can also reduce the number of attempts to deliver treatment, the need for sedation and the need for repeat appointments. Prioritising children’s right to play in healthcare results in healthier, happier children who are involved in their own healing and recovery as well as more efficient treatment and care.

We work in over 900 healthcare settings across the UK with an ultimate vision to ensure that no child endures trauma in healthcare.

In order to support our strategy by raising awareness of why we exist and what we do, we are seeking a dynamic and driven creative professional to join the Marketing and Communications team. You will design engaging visual content for fundraising, marketing and brand awareness campaigns and events across print and digital platforms, and assets for our healthcare services and products.

Working closely with colleagues and external providers, you will deliver distinct and compelling content across all Starlight touchpoints including events, owned, earned and paid for channels. You are experienced in understanding different audience requirements and are able to advise colleagues and adjust design output accordingly. Reporting to the Creative Lead, you’ll also support them in ensuring streamlined processes are implemented and project goals are achieved to the highest standard.

Join our Stories Team and help amplify the voices of patients and fundraisers, showcasing the impact of The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. Collaborate across departments to deliver inspiring campaigns and case studies that raise awareness and drive action. Be part of a rewarding career where your work supports The Royal Marsden to save the lives of people affected by cancer, everywhere.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Collaborating across the Charity and the hospital to identify opportunities where patient and supporter stories can amplify fundraising and awareness.
• Interviewing patients, families, and supporters to create powerful stories for fundraising materials, campaigns, and digital platforms.
• Building and stewarding relationships with case studies, ensuring diversity, representation, and sensitive management across all communications.
• Reviewing and shaping case study briefs to ensure clear objectives and agreed criteria are met.
• Maintaining and auditing the case study database to keep an up‑to‑date, ethically managed bank of stories and images.
• Working with colleagues in the PR, fundraising, marketing and digital teams to showcase stories across channels, support events, and maximise the Charity’s impact.

 What We’re Looking For

• A natural storyteller with strong copywriting, interviewing, and editing skills, able to craft powerful patient and supporter stories across digital, print and campaign channels. 

• A relationship builder with excellent interpersonal skills, empathy and resilience, who can connect sensitively with case studies while maintaining professional boundaries. 

• A creative communicator who can interpret briefs, tailor content for diverse audiences and showcase stories that drive engagement, fundraising and brand awareness. 

• A collaborative team player who thrives on working with colleagues across fundraising, marketing and PR and communications, building strong relationships and sharing ideas to create impactful stories together. 

Why Join Us?

We’re a values-driven charity committed to saving the lives of people with cancer everywhere by funding life-saving research and world-leading treatment and care at The Royal Marsden. You’ll be part of a collaborative team that’s ambitious, kind, and purposeful – with the flexibility to work in a way that suits you.

• Hybrid working between home and Chelsea with occasional travel to Sutton.

• Restore habitats. Nature is in crisis even in our National Park. We’re working to create bigger, better and more joined up habitats across the Peak District, supporting biodiversity and providing essential corridors for wildlife.
• Connect people and communities to nature. The more people who are connected to nature, the more people will want to protect it. We are working to ensure people of all ages and backgrounds have opportunities to experience and care for our National Park.
• Ensure access for everyone. There are over 1,600 miles of paths within the National Park. We’re working to fund high quality path repair, improve access for people with disabilities and help more people enjoy their right to roam.
• Protect our cultural heritage. The Peak District landscape has been shaped by people. We’re working to protect and conserve these irreplaceable heritage sites, from historic buildings and industrial structures to pre-historic features.

If you’re enthusiastic about making a difference and helping protect and promote the UK’s first National Park, we’d love to hear from you. We are open to individuals looking to transition from other sectors.

The Parish of St Mary’s and St James, located in NW6, London, is seeking to appoint an experienced fundraising professional to develop a comprehensive fundraising strategy and bid-writing template to support essential large scale capital repair projects at both church buildings.

The appointed consultant will produce a clear, actionable, and sustainable fundraising plan that draws on multiple funding streams — including grants, partnerships, individual giving, digital fundraising, and community events — while ensuring both projects progress cohesively and without internal competition for resources.

2. Project Background

The parish comprises two Grade II listed churches, both of which are active places of worship and important community landmarks within West Hampstead and South Hampstead.

St Mary’s Church

St Mary’s is a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1856-1862, and currently listed on the Historic England “At Risk” Register. The church requires urgent repair works to its spire, estimated at £1.5 million, alongside further essential maintenance identified in the quinquennial inspection. As a historic and much-loved building, St Mary’s preservation is a key priority for the parish and local community.

St James Church

Built in 1887–8 and designed by A.W. Blomfield, St James Church is also Grade II listed. The large red-brick structure, with steeply pitched tiled roofs and Bath stone dressings, is a notable local landmark and the only listed building within the South Hampstead Conservation Area. Camden Council’s Conservation Area Appraisal describes it as “a very important part of the quality and character of the area.”

St James is recognised nationally as a model of how historic churches can be adapted for sustainable use. Reopened in 2014 as The Sherriff Centre, it combines traditional worship with a thriving community and social enterprise hub — including a Post Office, soft play centre, café, retail space, and event venue.

St James now faces essential capital repairs to its roof, guttering, and masonry, as identified by its quinquennial inspection.

Fundraising Objective

Although St Mary’s and St James are distinct buildings, the parish seeks a single, unified fundraising strategy that will enable both capital projects to move forward in tandem, sharing messaging and timelines to avoid competition for funding opportunities.

3. Scope of Work

The consultant will produce a detailed and actionable fundraising strategy and a skeleton bid-writing template to support the parish in delivering its capital repair objectives.

A. Fundraising Strategy

The strategy should cover five core fundraising areas, each with specific recommendations, timelines, and success measures:

1. Grant Applications to Trusts and Foundations
   • Identification of suitable capital funders, including National Lottery Heritage programmes and major charitable trusts.
2. Corporate Partnerships
   • Identification of potential local business partners with corporate social responsibility programmes.
3. Individual Giving

4. Digital Fundraising
   • Plans for social media campaigns, crowdfunding, and email marketing.
   • Recommendations for digital platforms, messaging, and performance tracking.
5. Community Fundraising Events
   • Framework for community-focused events to engage local audiences and raise funds.

B. Skeleton Bid Template

An editable bid-writing template will be created to assist the parish with future applications. This will include:

• Core content sections (e.g., project summary, need, impact, budget, sustainability).
• Example text and guidance notes.
• Style and structure recommendations for clarity and professionalism.

4. Deliverables

• Comprehensive Fundraising Strategy Document covering both churches.
• Action Plan with timelines and priority recommendations.

• Demonstrable ability to develop multi-strand fundraising strategies integrating grants, individuals, corporate, and community income.

1. Experience and Suitability
   • Overview of relevant professional experience, especially in heritage or faith-based fundraising.
   • Examples of similar projects delivered.
2. Evidence of Fundraising Success

   • Proposed timeline for completion.

People’s Health Trust is a national charity working with local communities across Great Britain to address health inequalities through the building blocks of health. We want to stop people dying too young and make health equal.

Poor housing, low incomes, poor quality or no work cycles, lack of affordable food and lack of access to nature all contribute to poor health outcomes for the most vulnerable. This is avoidable.

Our work focuses on:

• Working with partners (corporate, community, trusts and foundations and families) to provide impactful, targeted support for communities experiencing the greatest marginalisation and health disadvantage in Great Britain.
• Using our evidence and learning to influence local and national decision makers.
• Working with our networks of over 600 funded partners to ensure the needs of those most marginalised are represented, heard and responded to.

This new role is crucial to the Trust’s future work. With a strong interest in social justice and a track record of delivering high-impact marketing and communications strategies, you will lead on media relations, digital content, campaigns, and brand management, ensuring the charity’s voice is clear, compelling, and aligned with its mission.

You will bring your expertise in brand development and delivering integrated communications plans to engage business, policy and funder audiences.

You will have a sound understanding of equity, diversity and inclusion and its effect on health and wellbeing.
