10 people are diagnosed with sarcoma every day in the UK. People with sarcoma tend to be younger than most people with cancer, and half of the people diagnosed with sarcoma will not survive.

We have an exciting opportunity for a major gifts fundraiser to join our highly motivated and supportive team. This is a new role with great potential to make a big impact, taking on an existing prospect pool which includes many warm supporters, and building on our recent Charity of the Year partnership with 10 Downing Street.

The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
