We'd like to say a big congratulations to Just Like Us and Hubbub, who have been shortlisted in the Third Sector Awards 2018! Just Like Us have been nominated for the 'small charity, big achiever' award and Hubbub have been nominated for the 'communications campaign of the year' award.

We've got one new team member, and now we're looking for another! Grace will be leaving TFN in August, meaning we a recruiting a new Membership and Communications Coordinator. 

We're really excited to have a new team member here at TFN - meet Sally Hoang, our new Finance and Grants Coordinator. We asked her a few questions so you can get to know her.

If you joined us at TFN London last night, you will have seen Sebastien from Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain (IWGB) present their impact report, 12 months after their pitch at TFN raised over £7,000.

In its 16 year life, TFN has had just two Chairs. Fred Mulder led us through our first decade and Michael Maynard for the past six years. Are there many better examples of quality over quantity?

We are really pleased to let you know that the Swan Appeal raised an amazing £92,000 against our £75,000 target, in just over a month. Thank you very, very much to all those who gave so kindly and generously. TFN is very lucky to have such great friends. 

This month we're introducing you to our newest Trustee, Josh Babarinde. You might recognise him from some TFN and Young Funding Network events where he has previously pitched:

We were really pleased to hear that last week Cracked It, funded at Young Funding Network's Crowdbacker and at TFN London in 2016, was named Social Enterprise of the Year by the Centre for Social J

It’s a sad month for TFN International as we bid farewell to the co-founder and first CEO of TFN Australia, Lisa Cotton.
