Meet Lucy - "Counting the things which can't be counted"

The Fed relies on the dedication and tireless work of staff across a huge range of professions. From carers to caterers and maintenance to marketing, the full makeup of the organisation is the product of almost every conceivable skill and talent imaginable.

But for some, those talents often go unnoticed and without fanfare, and Lucy Edwards is one of those.

As The Fed's Trusts, Foundations, and Bids Fundraiser, Lucy's skill is sourcing new and ongoing sources of income to fund a multitude of the services we provide.

Far from simply writing letters and asking for financial support, this complex, involved, and often long-term responsibility lies at the heart of everything The Fed does, as it carries with it a need to understand every aspect of The Fed's long-term strategy, service provision, and community development.

If you're interested in the inner-workings of The Fed, or have wondered for some time about what and how fundraising involves, this episode is the one for you.

As a bonus, it's also very, very funny.
