About Sebby’s Corner
Sebby’s Corner is a Barnet-based charity supporting vulnerable families and children living in
poverty across London and the South East. We support thousands of families every year with
clothing, nappies, formula, school uniforms, birthday gifts and more. In 2024–25, we supported
almost 4,000 children and over 2,300 parents, distributing £482,993 worth of essentials.

Sebby’s Corner serves families in crisis, many of whom are experiencing homelessness, fleeing
domestic abuse, seeking asylum, or living in poverty. Referrals are made by frontline professionals
including social workers, midwives, health visitors, and family support workers so we can ensure
we are reaching the most vulnerable.

We believe by meeting immediate material needs, we can help stabilise families, reduce stress,
and improve the wellbeing of both parents and children. We believe it is impossible to break free
from debt, apply for work, or rebuild your life when you don’t know where your baby’s next feed or
nappy is coming from and that’s where our support begins.

About the Role
We are looking for a Fundraiser to join our small, busy team at Sebby’s Corner. This is a hands-on
role that brings together community fundraising, corporate partnerships, events and supporter
care.

You will be the only dedicated fundraising role in the organisation, working closely with the Founder

involved in the detail and seeing things through from idea to delivery.
