Regional Fundraising Manager in Malton

Camphill Village Trust is a social care provider and charity rooted in nature and community, supporting adults with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health support needs to live healthier, more active and independent lives.

For over 70 years we have pioneered a different kind of care - shaped by place, purpose, and the natural world.

We believe care should do more than meet needs, it should create opportunity, belonging, and purpose.

By rooting our support in meaningful work, relationships, and the natural environment, we help people to build skills, confidence, and independence.

The Regional Fundraising Manager (National Programme Development) will lead the creation, development and delivery of Camphill Village Trust's community fundraising programme.

You will establish community fundraising as a sustainable and growing income stream across the trust by creating a framework that can be scaled across Camphill Village Trust nationally.

This role combines strategic planning, relationship building, and programme development but also encompasses hands‑on delivery across our northern communities.

You will play a key role in raising awareness of Camphill Village Trust, strengthening community connections and creating opportunities for supporters to help more people with learning disabilities and autism live extraordinary lives.
