Location – Based at Sir Oswald Stoll Mansions, 446 Fulham Road, London SW6 1DT, with occasional travel to other Stoll Foundation sites, London-based museums and national archives.
Background
The Stoll Foundation is the leading provider of housing and support services to vulnerable veterans. Founded in 1916 by theatre impresario Sir Oswald Stoll to house severely disabled WWI veterans, The Stoll Foundation has provided a sanctuary to help veterans rebuild their lives for over one hundred years.
As The Stoll Foundation enters a new chapter, an opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Heritage Project Officer to join our team and oversee the day-to-day delivery of a 2.5-year heritage project. Veterans’ Voices: 100 Years of Housing Heroes is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to launch an ambitious project exploring the rich history of The Stoll Foundation while engaging our residents through workshops and events and building lasting ties with the local community.
Veterans’ Voices: 100 Years of Housing Heroes
The Heritage Project is a direct response to the sale of our main site, the historic Sir Oswald Stoll Mansions, which will be handed over to our neighbours Chelsea FC in 2027. While residents of the Mansions will move to nearby, higher-quality accommodation in the new build development of King’s Road Park, aspects of our heritage including the Mansions themselves, our on-site archives and the memories and stories of our residents are at risk.
From late 2025 until early 2028, the Heritage Project Officer will deliver a series of workshops, tours, activities, and lectures which celebrate, preserve, and share our rich heritage while engaging and integrating the local veteran and civilian communities in Fulham. Working with partners including the Fulham Society, Hammersmith & Fulham Archives and two volunteer committees, the Heritage Project Officer will also conduct extensive archival and online research to piece together the hidden history and forgotten stories of The Stoll Foundation and our early residents. Additionally, the Officer will lead on the production of key assets including a website section devoted to our heritage and a physical and digital book of the local community’s memories of Stoll Mansions. The project will culminate in a temporary exhibition which the Heritage Project Officer will design and deliver with the support of volunteers and professionals.
Key Responsibilities
- Recruiting and managing two teams of volunteers: a Local Heritage Heroes committee of local community members and a Veteran Heritage Committee of The Stoll Foundation residents.
- Planning and delivering events and activities including workshops, open days, lecture series, committee meetings and field trips.
- Leading the planning and delivery of a temporary exhibition created in collaboration with project beneficiaries and volunteers.
- Tracking and reporting on a significant budget.

- Managing the production of collaborative historical case studies and oral histories.
- Engaging with the local community to ensure participation in activities and integration with the Stoll veteran community and vice versa.
- Conducting archival and online research to uncover the story of Sir Oswald Stoll, The Stoll Foundation, Stoll Mansions, and our early veteran beneficiaries.
- Managing the cataloguing, digitisation and conservation of archival materials.
- Identifying and acting upon opportunities for further collaboration and partnerships; managing existing partnerships.
- Reporting on and evaluating the project including wellbeing impact on participants.
