We’re an independent charitable foundation, backed by Lloyds Banking Group and the people within it. 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.

The grant is fantastic because it covers our core costs – my role and the administration team which comprises two people. These costs are always the hardest to secure yet provide the foundations from which services can operate. [...] But it’s not just the money Lloyds Banks Foundation provides; it’s the whole package that makes such a difference! And it’s not only the amount and type of support we’ve had, it’s the way it has been offered – from a perspective of understanding our needs as a small charity.
Read our five-year strategy, Building a Better Future, on our commitments to partner with charities, people and communities working towards a more just and compassionate society.
We have a passionate and committed team. To best reach, understand and support small and local charities some of us live and work in each of the regions of England and in Wales.

We are an independent charity governed by Trustees but we share an ambition with our funder Lloyds Banking Group to help people, communities and Britain prosper.
We are taking steps to reduce pay gaps in our workforce as we strive to become a more diverse and inclusive organisation.
We want to make sure that as many people as possible can use our services fully and have access to all the information we share.
Having Lloyds Bank Foundation actively bringing people together, facilitating conversations, helping joint reflection, sense-making and learning to take place can be a game changer. This is not about someone parachuting in to dictate how services should look or funding the delivery of projects. It is about identifying the existing strengths in a place and helping all those living and working together to imagine how things might be better. It is about creating the conditions of trust, safety, and capacity and removing barriers such as fear so new relationships can emerge
