Fundraising for the Local Hospice Lottery
Top Fundraiser

"I’m never in one place for more than a few days at a time. You get to meet such lovely people. You’re never alone, because you’re part of a team wherever you are. It’s very, very flexible."
A lifeline for local children and families

"Our partnership with the Local Hospice Lottery is absolutely essential. It raises approximately £280,000 a year for Haven House and without those funds, we simply couldn't do what we do."
Why I love making a difference every day
Fundraiser
Nick
"I've never worked in sales. It was completely new to me. But one of the criterias was like, you like people and you care about people. And I thought, well, that sounds like me. I'll just give it a go. And it's probably the best decision I've ever made."
Helping hospices focus on what they do best

What makes a great fundraiser
