**Simi Epstein has been appointed as the National Fundraising Manager of veterinary
charity PDSA.**

Previously Head of Community Fundraising at the Motor Neurone Disease Association,
Simi more than doubled their community fundraising income during her five years 
there. She joined PDSA at the end of August.

Simi said: “Each year, PDSA PetAid services provide some 1.3 million free veterinary
treatments to sick and injured pets across the UK. Community fundraising already
plays a crucial role in supporting this and my aim is to develop this, paying particular
focus on how to engage individuals and get them more involved.
