WORK HISTORY
Head of Fundraising @Shelter Cymru
Cardiff, GB
Shelter Cymru is an independent Welsh charity (ie not part of Shelter England/ Scotland), founded on the belief that everyone in Wales has the right to a decent, secure home. Since 1981, Shelter Cymru has helped almost a million people to fight for their rights, get back on their feet and find and keep a home. We support individuals and families in Wales who are either living in poor housing, facing/ experiencing homelessness or already rough sleeping.We provide free, independent, expert housing advice and support on the phone, online and face to face in 75 advice surgeries across all 22 local authorities in Wales, making our frontline support service the most extensive of its kind in the UK. We attend court to defend people at risk of losing their home and we campaign to tackle the root causes and consequences of the housing crisis.In the last 12 months, 22 513 people came to us for help. More than of these were children. The demand on our services has increased by 25% in a year.Our fundraised income is vital. Shelter Cymru has made a huge impact in Wales over the past 40 years, helping those in housing need and bringing about policy and legislative changes that have helped countless more. IF EVERYONE IN WALES DONATED £1.13 TO SHELTER CYMRU TODAY, IT WOULD FUND OUR SERVICES FOR A WHOLE YEAR.If you would like to discuss how you can support our work, please get in touch. Home is everything. Please help protect it. Diolch.
