Hi All,
We are currently in need of some temporary assistance on our fundraising team. It would be 3 days per week starting as soon as possible with the possibility of going to a permanent, full-time position for the right individual. The work involves the day-to-day handling of our membership programme and providing support for a range of fundraising activities.

Direct fundraising experience isn't required though it is beneficial - as is an interest in working for a charity or museum.

If you know of anyone looking to gain some experience in fundraising or is looking for some temporary work, please encourage them to contact me.

Thanks!
Laura

Individual Giving.

Salary will be up to £30k per annum for the right person, plus a comprehensive

fundraising, and is not a sales or commission-based role.

Hi All

I was wondering if anyone else is planning on updating their statements on their
websites about cookies following the new EU law?  Looking at websites of some of
the sector's bigger charities, most don't seem to have done more than updating
their privacy statements.  Other types of site like the BBC have a pop-up
statement that appears when you first visit.

Be interested to hear what you are planning to do?

Hi All,
I'm pleased to share that we have set a date for the next meeting of the South
West Legacy Group. It will take place on Thursday, 20th September from 10.00am
to 12.00pm at Cobalt Health in Cheltenham. Howard Baker from the Bible Society
will be our featured speaker and will provide a masterclass in Legacy
Administration. We will also have time for questions and open discussion of any
issues so if there are specific topics you'd like addressed, please let me know.

We are limited to 25 spaces so please RSVP to me to ensure yourself a place. I
would also ask that everyone attempt to car share if possible. Cobalt will try
to reserve us some spaces but as they are a working clinic with patients
regularly visiting space needs to be given to them as a priority.

Nearer the time, I will send around a map and further details for arrival etc.
Zena Giles, Legacy Officer for Cobalt, is coordinating the meeting on their end
of things so if you have queries in the meantime, feel free to contact her
directly at Zena.Giles@....

Many thanks to Zena and Howard for making the meeting possible.

I look forward to seeing you all then – if not before.

Hi Martina,

 

I’ve just seen your email and could well be able to help you.

 

I’ve been in fundraising for many years and am still involved with the IOF on the SW Committee and have presented on trusts and grant fundraising to national and regional IOF conferences

 

I’ve recently set up a CIC to help charities with their accounts mainly although I still keep my hand in with some fundraising help and advice.

 

The number of days per week required could affect my availability as I wouldn’t be able to do 5 days a week but the next two months are usually my quiet times so I would have plenty of time.

 

I’ve attached a CV showing my fundraising background.

 

I would be very pleased to help such a great charity as Winston’s Wish.

 

Regards

 

Chris Dennis

Subject: Collection box research

I have been away from fundraising for some 3 years now, but have just been tasked with a project to increase our income from on-site collection boxes/devices. 

 

I have spoken to the majority of City-based museums and attractions and have had a wonderful response in terms of gleaming what they are currently doing, what works well, works doesn’t work so well, thoughts and ideas, and yearly income generation from them.

 

Now this may have already been discussed at one of your forums, but I wondered if people are willing to share their experience/expertise in this area?  At present I am after the following information:

1.     Photos of different types of collection devices

2.     How much they cost (if bespoke)

3.     Their location on site (main entrance/exit etc)

4.     Whether they are doing well, or not

5.     What else you have thought of that could work better (improved signage, interactive/gimmicky)

6.     Yearly income (ball park figure will suffice, e.g £2k pa)

7.     Information on others you may have seen at other museums/attractions in the UK and further afield

8.     Anything else that you may think is relevant

 

I am more than happy to share my research findings with anyone that sends me any information.

 

Thank you in advance of any information you are able to share with me.

 

Kind regards

 

Gary

Hello. We have recently run out of collecting tins and wondered if anyone had any spares that they might like to lend or donate to us? The enthusiasm of our volunteers and supporters has out-weighed our budget already this year! We'd be very grateful for any help. Thank you.

I've been taking photos of charity collection boxes for several years and sharing them via Flickr at

Not quite the level of detail you're after but they might give you some design ideas.

Dear All

I wanted to get your opinion on legacies and thanking
people/solicitors/relatives for them.

We have had some legacies come in here at the hospital to the charitable fund
and we are trying to decide if we should write a thank you letter.  We would
like to thank someone but do not want to cause any upset.

In all cases we only have a solicitors address and I am not sure if we should
send them a thank you letter and if we did would they pass it on to the family
or just keep it on file.

Any opinions would be appreaciated
Many thanks

Probate can take a while so it may be sometime after the death that you receive the legacy.  In this case the family may well have had time to come to terms with the death of their loved one.  Whatever the time lapse between the death and receipt of the legacy, the family would wish to know that the legacy has been received, is appreciated and the purpose to which it is put.  Though the letter goes via the solicitor, in my experience it is always appreciated by the family.  Care should be taken that in the thank you letter, the use to which the legacy is put mirrors the wishes of the donor as expressed in the will if it is stated.

So, yes, thank you letters for legacies should be written to the acting solicitor but in a way that conveys to the family the appreciation of the recipient charity.

Has anyone looked into installing PV solar panels to get free electricity, and even to be paid with the Govt’s Feed-in tariff scheme?

 

I know the majority of grants have now been cut in line with rolling out the ‘payback’ tariff, but I was wondering if there are grants available to help charities with the installation costs.

 

Many thanks in advance on anything anyone is able to share.
