About The Advocacy Project
We help people speak up and make decisions about their health, wellbeing and social care. We’re here to make sure people across all ages and care groups can understand their rights, make effective choices about their lives and voice their concerns.
Some of the ways we do this include:
- advocacy services that make sure people can express their wishes when decisions are being made about their care or wellbeing
- user involvement projects that help organisations improve what they offer by listening to people who use their services
- local Healthwatch organisations, which act as health and social care champions for the areas they serve and give people a direct channel to share their feedback.
Our services are independent, confidential and free to those receiving them. Together, our teams are standing up for essential rights and supporting people to have a say on the issues that matter to them.
About this role
You will be joining The Advocacy Project at a critical time as we enter into the second year of our new strategy. Key to the success of this is developing a sustainable business model that moves us from a reliance on statutory income to a mixed portfolio of funding, including trusts and foundations and paid-for services.
As part of our Senior Leadership Team you will be agile and collaborative, a fundraising professional who has developed and delivered an income generation strategy and achieved income growth across multiple income streams. You will be hands on, getting stuck into the applications, prospecting, communicating and developing new income opportunities.
You will build and lead a small, effective and positive fundraising team.
Closing date: midnight, Monday 22nd June 2026.
