Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales supports small, local charities and community interest companies working with people facing complex social barriers, especially where poverty intersects with disability, race, homelessness, or other forms of disadvantage. Its funding is distinctive for offering substantial unrestricted grants alongside development support, with a strong emphasis on strengthening organizations that are rooted in and led by the communities they serve. The Foundation also uses its influence to shape policy and practice so that local charities can thrive and people can access support that is harder to reach through mainstream systems.
