Mental Health Foundation expands Fundraising department
UK charity the Mental health Foundation has just created two brand new fundraising business units as a result of a major review and re-structure.
With 1 in 4 people in the UK suffering from a mental health problem each year, the work of the Mental Health Foundation is vital. To find solutions and treatments for mental illness’s there needs to be in depth research and of course this is only possible with funding.
The two new units named ‘Individual Giving’ and ‘Partnerships’ have a new 12 strong team, led by Peter Jennings who was previously the Fundraising and Marketing Director at Marie Curie Cancer Care. Jennings said “We go into our 2010-11 financial year with a sound fundraising strategy and full of confidence that we can grow our voluntary income. We also aim to improve our overall return on investment.”
Colleagues across the Fundraising and Communications departments will be working alongside each other in order to increase the number of supporters and raise those vital funds.
