Job description
Dose of Nature is moving towards sustainable national delivery. With strong clinical foundations, independent research demonstrating measurable impact, and growing partnerships across the health and heritage sectors, we are now strengthening our fundraising capability to support our next phase.
This is an opportunity to join a small, ambitious organisation where evidence, demand and strategic momentum are aligned, and where strong fundraising delivery can directly support the scale and reach of impact.
About Dose of Nature
Dose of Nature is transforming the UK’s approach to mental health by placing nature at the heart of mental health interventions.
We deliver clinically led, volunteer-powered nature prescriptions that achieve clinically measurable outcomes. Independent research, including a two-year study with the London School of Economics, has demonstrated statistically significant improvements in wellbeing, life satisfaction and purpose among participants.
Dose of Nature currently operates with approximately £500k annual income. As we scale our partnership and membership models, we aim to grow this to c.£800k per year over the next three years, enabling sustainable national delivery and increased access for communities across the UK.
Our priorities over this period include:
- Expanding partnership hubs across multiple regions
- Launching an accredited membership model to scale delivery
- Piloting and embedding Dose of Nature prescriptions within NHS programmes
- Strengthening academic research, accreditation and national influence
The Role
This is a key fundraising role within a small and collaborative charity team.
As Fundraising Lead, you will play an important part in developing and delivering a diversified fundraising pipeline, with a particular focus on trusts and foundations, alongside philanthropy and selected partnership opportunities.
You will report to and work closely with the Director of Growth & Strategy, who leads overall fundraising strategy and senior relationships, while you focus on driving day-to-day fundraising activity, pipeline development and funder engagement.
This role would suit an experienced fundraiser who enjoys both planning and delivery; from researching opportunities to developing strong proposals and stewarding funder relationships.
