Contact the Elderly, the charity that tackles loneliness and isolation among older
people, has appointed Ruth Mantle as its new Fundraising Manager.

With over seven years experience in fundraising roles in both the UK and Asia, Mantle
joins Contact the Elderly from international development charity SolarAid where 
she was Head of Fundraising and Marketing. During her time there, she and her team
won several two awards for their corporate fundraising achievements.

At Contact the Elderly, Mantle will be focusing on developing corporate partnerships,
recruiting regular donors and increasing legacy income whilst maintaining long term
relationships with charitable trusts and foundations.
