Fundraising is managed by Verity Fifer and supported by a core team of dedicated volunteers. We work closely with the community to deliver fundraising events throughout the year.
Verity is supported by a core team of 16 volunteers who meet once a month to discuss forthcoming events and initiatives. The volunteers also manage the collecting tubs you may see displayed in local pubs and businesses plus they help sell Christmas cards with proceeds going to Lawrence Nurses.
We are always looking for new recruits please consider joining our friendly team.
