A little bit about us…

‘We use ‘trans’ as an umbrella term for people that are binary trans, non-binary,
genderqueer, genderfluid, agender or of other non-cisgender genders, including
those of non-Western origin.’

The Charity

Mermaids has been supporting trans children, young people, and their families since
1995. Mermaids has evolved into one of the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ charities,
empowering thousands of people with its secure online communities, local community
groups, helpline services, web resources, events, training, policy and stakeholder
engagement and residential weekends.

We also seek to educate and inform wider society on gender identity by helping
professionals accommodate and reassure gender diverse young people. Over the
years, we’ve seen many changes in the language and understanding surrounding
gender issues, but one thing remains the same: trans children deserve the freedom and
confidence to explore their gender identity wherever their journey takes them, free from
fear, isolation and discrimination.

What You Can Expect

In supporting our mission to create lasting, positive change for trans people, now and for
generations to come, you will receive our full support to thrive in your role. This includes
comprehensive  training,  opportunities  for  professional  development,  a  contributory
pension,  generous  holiday  entitlement,  access  to  external  supervision,  and  a  range  of
additional benefits.

Message from the CEO
Thank you for your interest in the role of Fundraising
Manager with Mermaids. This is a truly exciting time
to join the charity; there’s no other organisation like
Mermaids. Whatever you do here you will be
supporting our work to achieve our mission and make
positive change for transgender, non-binary, gender
diverse children and young people for generations to
come. Given the challenges facing young
transgender people on numerous fronts, it is more
important than ever for the charity to step up.

If you want to be involved in one of the most significant civil rights movements of our
time, then this is where you need to be. This role will be crucial in driving forward our
trusts, foundations and corporate partnerships work to build strong, mutually beneficial
relationships to support our mission.

I joined the organisation as Chief Executive Officer in November 2025, bringing with me
a long-standing commitment to youth advocacy and inclusive leadership. Supporting
trans, non-binary and gender-diverse young people is central to my work. Throughout
my career, I have championed policies that promote safety, dignity and equal access to
opportunities, and I continue to listen closely to the communities we serve to ensure
their experiences guide our direction. I am dedicated to fostering a culture of respect,
belonging, and meaningful change for all young people.

If you have the passion and drive to help us achieve our vision. I look forward to hearing
from you and, hopefully, joining us soon.

Yours,
Jo Hardy
CEO

About Forest Peoples Programme

Forest Peoples Programme (FPP) is an international NGO that has been working with Indigenous Peoples and forest peoples for 35 years since it was established in 1990. As of 2026, we work in 18 countries across South and Central America, Africa, and Southeast Asia, with over 50 partners based in the tropical forest belt. We work directly and in solidarity with communities and peoples, supporting them to secure their rights to their traditional lands, territories, and resources, protect their forests and ways of life, and choose their own futures.

Working at local, national and global levels FPP supports indigenous peoples and forest peoples to effect change from the bottom up – grounded in struggles to advance the enjoyment of their rights and seek remedy for violations. At the same time, we work to ensure the voices and priorities of indigenous peoples and forest peoples shape national and international law and policy – e.g. relating to business and human rights, climate, and biodiversity – so that resulting regulatory and market reform better serves and respects their rights.
