In this role, you will gain insights into dementia while contributing to the fundraising efforts that support individuals living with and affected by the condition. You will have training and support from a Role Manager. You will be connected to a friendly and passionate team of Regional Fundraisers.
Rutland's dementia diagnosis rate is lower than the national average: As of February 2024, the dementia diagnosis rate in Rutland was 52.9%, compared to 64.5% in England. There are thousands of people living with dementia in Rutland and their caregivers who also require our support.
