Community and Events Fundraising Officer
Cherry Trees
Reporting to: Head of Fundraising
Location: East Clandon, Guildford (open to homeworking 2 days per week)
Caring for a child with a complex disability can be emotionally and physically exhausting. Cherry Trees provides a lifeline for families through its home-from-home care for children with complex disabilities and its wrap-around support for the family. Last year, the charity supported 70 children from 63 families through 52,750 hours of care. They also ran activity days, hosted parent/carer wellbeing days, and provided small but vital financial grants through their Welfare Fund.

In this pivotal role, you will have the opportunity to make your mark and grow the charity's range of products that engage with their existing and potential supporters. Events that include 2 x Golf Days, 2 x Live Music events and our Christmas Market. These events attract more than 1,200 supporters and will raise more than £250k this year.
Challenge Events programme, which is very much in its infancy, includes partnerships with Choose a Challenge and Run for Charity, as well as their one 2025 London Marathon place and bespoke Cherry Trees to Paris 24-Hour Cycling Challenge scheduled for July 2025. These events raise around £35k.
Partnerships with corporates, community groups and organisations, and individuals. They also have a long running Bridge League and our Collection Tins Champions and Celebration Giving products that are ready to grow. The current programme will see the charity engage with more than 1,400 individuals and organisations and raise £350k but there is huge potential to grow both engagement and income.
