About Tuckwell Chase Lottery
Founded in 1998, Tuckwell Chase Lottery provides regular, secure income for Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice Care and Shooting Star Children’s Hospices (see further details for each below). With the government only covering 20% of the hospice running costs, a further £20 million a year needs to be raised for these essential hospices to continue to offer the outstanding care and services to those who need it most. Tuckwell Chase Lottery is a crucial fundraising initiative for both hospices.
The Lottery currently has 36,000 regular members and generates £1.27 million net income that is split between the two hospices. The funds it contributes to vital, compassionate hospice care in London, Surrey and North-East Hampshire are critical to ensuring services are available to patients, their families and friends.
Who it Helps
Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice Care provides supportive and end of life care for adult patients and families who are living with an advanced or terminal illness, such as cancer. Every day they support over 250 patients, relatives and carers – in their own homes, in the community, at the Hospice in Farnham and at the Beacon Centre in Guildford – through medical and nursing care, therapies, counselling, social work advice and practical support. As the NHS/Government only covers 20% of costs, Phyllis Tuckwell have to raise over £25,000 a day to be able to offer all of their services, which are provided free of charge to their patients and families. Therefore, they rely heavily on the support and generosity of their local community.
Shooting Star Children’s Hospices cares for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families. They support families from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care. Shooting Star Children’s Hospices support 700 families living throughout Surrey and across 14 London boroughs. It costs approximately £10 million a year to maintain their current level of care and around 30% of that income comes from central government funding, so they rely on supporters’ generosity to keep the service running.
About the role
Reporting to the Board of Tuckwell Chase Lottery, the Managing Director is responsible for the strategic development, marketing and delivery of the lottery, budgeting, financial management, oversight of commercial and regulatory requirements and leadership of the team.
The majority of players are recruited face-to-face, and Tuckwell Chase Lottery has longstanding partnerships with trusted third-party suppliers that represent it at private sites and the doors of events across the catchment areas of both hospices. The management of these relationships is of critical importance in terms of acquiring new players, ensuring high-quality public engagement and safeguarding the reputations of the lottery and hospices.
Combining responsibility for all management functions of a small social enterprise with day-to-day autonomy to grow player numbers, develop new products, introduce new recruitment channels and optimise existing ones, the position is well-suited to a strategic doer who enjoys the blend of leadership and being hands-on.
