John Lyon’s Charity gives grants to benefit children and young people up to the age of 25 (or up to 30 for young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities) who live in nine boroughs in North and West London: Barnet, Brent, Camden, Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham, Harrow, Kensington & Chelsea, and the Cities of London and Westminster. Since 1991, we have been committed to transforming the lives of children and young people by creating opportunities to learn, grow, and develop through education. John Lyon’s Charity has distributed over £219 million in grants to a range of organisations that seek to promote the life chances of children and young people through education, with around £15 million in grants distributed each year.
Our 2024 Annual Report is now live!
We are pleased to announce that our 2024 Annual Report, titled Adapting and Advancing: Three Years of Home-School-Community, is now available. This year’s report marks a significant milestone as we reached the halfway point of our six-year Home-School-Community Strategy (HSC), which began in April 2021.
Whilst also celebrating the significant accomplishments of the past year, the report focuses on the Charity’s HSC Covid-19 response strategy, providing an overview of the progress made over the last three years and offering a detailed analysis of each HSC Fund.
Using films and interviews with our grantees to bring the report to life, we delve into how and where our grants have been distributed, the outcomes achieved so far, and how we’ve adapted to evolving needs and challenges – all while strengthening the vital connections between the three most significant areas of a child’s life: their home, school, and community.
We invite you to explore the full annual report via the link below, and we hope that you find it informative, inspiring and insightful!
