About Leuchie
Leuchie is the national respite charity giving families a break from the physical and emotional responsibilities of
caring for a loved one. The charity is dedicated to supporting individuals and families living with a
neurological condition such as MS, MND, Parkinson’s and stroke through short respite breaks and outreach
services. The expert team work to transform lives by improving health, enabling independence, and tackling
loneliness.
Leuchie provides a range of settings that suit the health needs and circumstances of the
individual and their family. These include short breaks with 24-hour nursing and care, therapies, social activities
and outings at Leuchie House, accessible self-catering accommodation for all the family or regular at-home
support.
Through innovative partnership working and research, Leuchie is reimagining the delivery of respite as a way of
meeting wider health and social care outcomes for the families it supports.
Dorothy is 98 and a carer for her 68 year old son Robert who has multiple sclerosis. This is what Leuchie means to
her- “It gives me a rest and some peace. It also helps me carry on by having something to look forward to.”
There is a growing need to support those living with a neurological condition and their families that Leuchie is
determined to respond to. The charity currently supports around 500 families, just like Dorothy and Robert, each
year, and has a strategic intent to positively impact ten times as many lives by 2030.

Leuchie has significant potential to expand its support from corporate partnerships and you will play a crucial role
in strengthening and growing these relationships. You should have a strong track record in securing and
stewarding high-value 5 to 6 figure partnerships, negotiating sponsorship deals, and engaging key
decision-makers in meaningful collaborations.
You will work closely with the Director of Development and Head of Fundraising, and have the support of a highly

developing corporate engagement strategies and delivering impact reports to senior stakeholders is
