We treat conditions including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety. The delivery of our specialist support is only made possible through a strong fundraising strategy and a talented team of fundraisers within the charity.
In your role as the Corporate Fundraising Officer, you will help the Partnership and Sponsorship Manager to implement the departmental strategy in line with KPI’s and to generate vital funds that are key to the continued support of our veterans.
