85 years on, our work remains rooted in its founding principles however, over the eight decades since the organisation was established, the needs of the community for which we serve have changed considerably. As a result, our services have needed to evolve to tackle the many complex issues facing children and young people growing up, in what is a densely populated area of London, where 48% live in poverty and over 60% are on the children’s social care register.

Today, alongside the provision of a seven acre park, playground and sports facilities, we deliver a wealth of services that include; an under 5’s drop in, a thirty five place nursery, after school clubs, holiday schemes, a free – five day a week sports programme and youth programme delivered from our state of the art youth centre.

Government grants, our most successful public fundraising campaign to date and generous support from trusts, foundations and grant giving bodies have provided a strong foundation for our recovery. More importantly, they have ensured that we have been able to continue to provide vital support to the hundreds of children that we work with every single week.

Alongside this, the success of our public emergency fundraising campaign in 2020, demonstrated the importance of Coram’s Fields to the local community and saw over 1,000 donors collectively raise over £110,000 to protect the charity’s future.

The opportunity to grow and develop our corporate partnerships and harness the support of the local community, to deliver life changing support for young people, and a sustainable income base for the charity, should drive your interest in the role.

As the principle fundraising resource, you will be adept at working under your own initiative however, your role as part of the Charity’s SMT will see you work closely with a committed senior team.

You’ll be joining an organisation with a strong history of delivering outstanding services for its beneficiaries and a staff team committed to changing the lives of young people for the better. A commitment to training, development and organisational wide support will ensure that you will be working in an environment created to enable success in all areas of your work, and one that balances opportunities for autonomy with clear strategic direction.

Your passion and commitment to the cause will be critical to your success, as will your ability to articulate with great confidence, the immeasurable impact that Coram’s Fields has on those that it serves.

You will be an ambitious professional, for whom the opportunity to shape the future of this unique organisation and make your own mark on it will hold huge appeal.
