Running the Bristol 10k on behalf of a client
Valentine's major appeal and general fundraising experience has been invaluable in supporting both Poole Hospital Charity, the NHS Trust and the Fundraising Team. His collaborative approach to setting up a fundraising campaign helped us to understand and engage more closely with the fundraising process in order to ensure the appeal and its aims are integrated with the trust's strategic direction. Valentine's has helped us to assess our fundraising potential and our long-term structure and plans.
