My names Lakhy

I’m the Fundraising Manager for the Manchester branch at SMILE Fundraising.

I’ve worked in fundraising for around 12 years . When the opportunity came up to open an office with SMILE i knew it would be a great opportunity but also a big challenge.

There’s been lots of ups and downs but 7 months later we have a great team.

The support from SMILE has been incredible.

We have weekly conversations on how we can improve our branch. I love the fact that we have access to everyone in the company including the MDs.

RNIB, because I think losing your vision would be up there with one of the most devastating things that can happen to a person
