The Home Office has appointed its first fundraiser, according to Third Sector magazine,
to raise funds for a charity facing closure.
Malcolm Tyndall has been appointed 
to raise £300,000 for the Federation of Black and Asian Drugs and Alcohol Workers
whose three-year government grant has just run out.

This is the first time such an appointment has been made, and it is unlikely to 
be repeated. An exception has been made because the Home Office’s drugs strategy
directorate valued the work of the Federation with black and minority ethnic communities.
