We are delighted that you are interested in the role of Regional Coordinator with Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF). This is an exciting time to join our team, as we work through a significant period of development and growth.

Pulmonary fibrosis refers to a specific group of lung diseases thought to be affecting around 70,000 people in the UK. The nature of these diseases all cause hardening and scarring of the lungs, preventing the transfer of oxygen into the bloodstream. The debilitating nature of these diseases has a devastating impact on quality of life and life expectancy.

Pulmonary Fibrosis affects every area of family life. As people become increasingly breathless their need for physical and emotional support becomes greater. Yet there is very little dedicated support available to patients and families. We are determined to change that.

Since APF was set up as a charity in 2013 we have established ourselves as a respected and influential charity. We have grown in impact and scale and our agreed Strategic Plan for 2019-2024 sets out our direction for the coming years.

Support groups form a key part of this. With 75 PF support groups around the UK, reaching 3,000 people, that’s a great start. Now we’re reaching out to 30,000 people who need one.

Patients and families tell us that peer support helps to overcome the fear and isolation that comes with a diagnosis, by providing a warm welcome, information and shared understanding with others who know what they are going through. We are committed to increasing the number and quality of support groups to reach out to more people with PF, particularly through the new challenges and increased risk of isolation brought by Covid-19.

The Regional Support Coordinators are pivotal in enabling this. You’ll help support groups to increase their reach and impact, so they confidently attract new members and raise awareness of pulmonary fibrosis in their area. You’ll help to develop new groups and inspire a network of regional volunteers to raise awareness and support. You’ll develop excellent relationships with health professionals and ways to engage, listen and share the views of PF patients and carers, digitally and, post-Covid, face-to-face, to help shape the future of APF, raise awareness and funding, and ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.

We are a collaborative, hard-working and fun team, with lots of mutual respect and support to reach our goals. In your role you’ll need to demonstrate care and compassion, flexibility and be solution focused. If you believe you have the experience, skills and qualities we are looking for, we very much look forward to hearing from you!

STRATEGY & VISION:

HHA is looking for someone with the vision and energy to develop a clear 3 year fundraising & partnership development strategy that will build upon existing strengths of HHA and develop new, innovative ideas in a professional and effective manner.This will require someone with adaptability, creativity and strong relationship building skills, working with HHA’s Finance Manager, Country Directors, CEO and Board of Trustees to design, implement and effectively monitor a strategy.This will be done with the aim of fulfilling a number of key objectives that will help increase our fundraising income over the coming 3 years.This will include setting out clear annual plans and executing these against agreed financial targets set with the CEO. This will include:

• Engaging new supporters and increasing ‘sign ups’.HHA has a strong and faithful base of long-term supporters.However, in order for HHA to grow and fulfil our ambitious vision, inspiring and engaging new supporters will be a central objective for this role.
• Improving communications, with particular focus on digital fundraising.This will include helping to build a stronger online community through improved social media and donor/supporter communications via email, website etc.It would be desirable for someone to have relevant experience and understanding about the future of digital fundraising (for instance, integrating easier donation technologies). 
• Developing new partnerships, including a specific focus on establishing and cultivating new relationships with churches, community giving groups, and corporate partners.

Alongside developing a robust fundraising strategy for HHA, the Fundraising and Partnerships Director will also be responsible for the following tasks:

PARTNERSHIPS:

As highlighted above, we are looking for someone with the confidence to initiate new partnerships and the ability to forge new connections/relationships with possible supporter, volunteer or donor groups.As a Christian charity with a small but committed number of church partners, we believe building upon our current church partnership activities will prove fruitful.Applicants should subsequently be comfortable in this environment and it would be desirable for someone to have had previous church based fundraising experience or knowledge through active church involvement.Beyond churches, the Fundraising and Partnerships Manager should aid the CEO in the approach and partnership development with other key relationships.For instance, other community groups, major donors, corporate groups etc.

• Managing the successful implementation of any fundraising events that the Fundraising and Partnerships Manager designs within the strategy. HHA have previously adopted a range of events, including small community-led quiz nights, Church partner events, Challenge events, and occasional Charity Galas (generally on special occasions like charity anniversaries).
• Provide quarterly reports to HHA’s Board of Trustees, sharing progress against the agreed strategy with clear KPIs

We are looking for an enthusiastic, innovative and personable fundraiser to join the Kit Tarka Foundation family and help save babies’ lives by raising vital funds for the charity. 

ABOUT US

We are a small yet ambitious charity with a mission to prevent newborn baby deaths through research and education. Our initial focus is on neonatal herpes (the cold sore virus in babies) but we expect to expand our activity to other causes of newborn mortality in future years. We are led by a passionate, skilled and hands on Board of trustees.

We work to achieve our mission through funding relevant research and developing training and education programmes for medical professionals and the general public.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Fundraising Manager will work across all fundraising activities to increase income generation. The remit is broad and provides the opportunity to really shape the future of the charity and the role itself. Many of the existing revenue streams are in their infancy so there is huge potential for the Fundraising Manager to make a real difference through their creativity and innovation.

As a small charity we have limited time and resources so the Fundraising Manager will work closely with the CEO and trustees to agree a realistic and achievable plan for their first year and beyond. Expected areas of focus will be grants, corporate partnerships and individual giving. They will secure and develop strong relationships with our supporters within the local and wider communities.

The Fundraising Manager will report directly to the CEO and provide quarterly progress updates to the Board of Trustees. A trustee with fundraising expertise will give additional support and guidance. The post is new and is expected to develop with the individual appointed.

The role is home-based but there will be regular meetings and events in Brighton. Due to funding restrictions, the role is initially part-time and fixed term but with genuine potential to extend.​
