Behind every Heart Heroes project is the vital work of securing the funding that makes it all possible, and that's where Vicki comes in.

A Day in the Life

No two days are ever the same! Vicki spends her time researching trusts and foundations, writing grant applications, managing existing grants, reporting on the impact of our work, and working closely with the team to secure funding that helps Heart Heroes continue supporting children and families living with lifelong heart conditions.

What Vicki Loves About Her Role

"I love discovering new funding opportunities and the creativity involved in writing grant applications. One of my proudest achievements has been helping to secure funding for our I CAN project and watching it grow into something that makes such a positive difference to the children and families we support."

The Challenge

The funding landscape is becoming increasingly competitive, with more charities applying for the same grants. While it can be challenging, nothing beats the feeling of receiving that successful grant notification and knowing it will directly change the lives of the families we support.

Every successful application helps Heart Heroes continue delivering life-changing support—and we're so grateful to have Vicki leading the way.

Thank you, Vicki, for everything you do!
