The Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) has appointed the first of three regional and
country development managers to build relationships with charities, companies and
donors. The network is designed to increase charitable funds by promoting tax-effective
giving and CAF’s banking and fundraising services.

The development managers will work within local communities in the Heart of England,
North of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

John Low, Chief Executive of the Charities Aid Foundation said: “We want to build
upon our strong presence in the South East of England to encourage and help more
individual donors and companies to give tax-effectively in ways that suit them and
to help charity money go further with our banking and fundraising services.”
