Homerton Hope is the charity for Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. The charity raises funds for the hospital and community services. Although Homerton is funded by the NHS, the Homerton Hope charity allows us to raise funds over and above NHS provision, to further enhance our services and make our patients' experience even better.
Funds raised by Homerton Hope help to pay for additional equipment, research and innovations, as well as finishing touches and 'extras' that complement the existing high-quality care for patients at the Hospital.
The post holder will support the Charity Manager on behalf of the Trust’s charity, working with both volunteers and staff. They will work alongside the Fundraising Manager to help develop and implement fundraising initiatives for the charity, maximising donations, legacies and gifts to support the charity in achieving its objectives.
The post holder will support the development of grant applications and fundraising appeals, including events and activities that not only maximise fundraising for the charity but also positively raise its profile and that of the Trust it supports.
