We want everyone to be in a good place - personally, in a home that’s a good place to live, and in a community that’s a good place to belong.
We back people and communities across England and Wales, to make that happen. We connect and catalyse community-led change, providing the money, time, tools and connections that build organisations’ capacity and capability, to make people’s lives better and their communities stronger.
We commissioned Charizone to evaluate our impact and they found that our investment doubles charity growth. This report looks at our investment between 2014 and 2025. Alongside funding, we've been providing organisational development and capacity building support.
This report, commissioned by Lloyds Banking Group and its four charitable Foundations to mark 40 years of supporting communities across the UK and Channel Islands, seeks to better understand the role small charities play in supporting financially vulnerable people and how we can strengthen that support.
This report summarises learnings from three years of working with communities across England and Wales. It highlights crucial lessons on new ways of designing and resourcing local services to provide sustainable support for people facing complex issues such as homelessness, addiction and domestic abuse.
The Lloyds Bank Foundation is more than just a funder; it's a fantastic network where you can meet and learn from other organisations. [The funding] allowed us to quickly adapt and respond to the pandemic when we received a huge number of referrals to our services – we provided emergency food and support for people who had just left care. It also allows us to meet our objectives and keep working towards our vision, rather than bend and have to shape ourselves to the funder.
