Corporate and Trusts Fundraiser

"The hospital saved my baby's life, Tiny Lives saved my family"

Tiny Lives Trust have been supporting premature and sick newborn babies and their families since their inception in 1983. Beginning as a fund for specific neonatal units, Tiny Lives became a charity in its own right in 2013 and has supported thousands of babies and their families since then. They offer practical and emotional support to families and ensure that the neonatal experience is more comfortable for all involved. They also support staff on the neonatal unit by funding training courses and providing resources and materials that can improve their department. Every year they support over 800 babies and their families from the Newcastle Neonatal Service alone.

Tiny Lives is growing and as part of their new strategy, they want to support more families. To do that need to grow income. They are looking for a Corporate Partnerships and Trusts Fundraiser to join their small but mighty team to help them continue their work championing and supporting sick and premature babies and their families.
