Developing our volunteer basis
Overseen by our Casework Coordinator, Deborah Aldridge, Miracles is proud and grateful to have a team of volunteer caseworkers spreading word of our services in hospitals and treatment centres and providing friendship and practical help to other families facing the type of crisis situations that they themselves have experienced.
We are committed to developing volunteer opportunities to extend our impact on families in crisis. If you would like to know more about volunteering with Miracles please contact us at miraclesthecharity@gmail.com
Low costs - high returns
Our current aim (2023/24) is to raise £300K by focusing on cost-effective fundraising activities that attract and engage our target supporters. Our biggest development in 2023 is focusing on local London business that have a vestured interest in the welfare of their community. We are also developing our online presence which is receiving a complete redesign and overhaul, allowing us to present our work and reach supporters in a clear and engaging way. This development has been undertaken by our media partner, Adgenda Media International, who have donated their time and resources pro-bono.
We keep overheads to a minimum employing just one full time Project Director and one part time Case Work Co-ordinator.
