LONDON FUNDERS P.eport and Accoun IJ for Background and structure London Funders was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in 2005, It is a charitable company structured as a membership association. Members are funders of the voluntary and community sector in London. Each pays a subscription and has a named representative (to vote at meetings such as the AGM). Most member organisations involve a range of staff and trustees in London Funders, activities, such as grant makin& commissioning, policy and research staff. Associate membership allows civil society organisations in London which do some funding, but not as their primary remit,.to belon8 to London Funders but with no voting rights. OBJECTIVES London Funders, mission Is to brlng funders together to build a better London by taking action on what matter5 to our clty and our communities. London is a complex city, and its funding landscape is changing dramatically. This change is being driven by a cornbination of factors including the impact of the covid-19 pandemlc, the ongoing impact of the cost of living crisis, the redefining of the role of the state (both national and local), the changing profile of poverty and the needs of the population w.ithin London, and the increasingly complex governance and public policy landscape that our members operate wlthin. Other regions and countries in the UK have high levels of need and disadvantage but in London their scale and complexity are masked by areas of extreme affluence. Funders need to know about how policy affects the capital and how funding can be developed to meet the diverse needs of London's communities. London Funders is unique in bringing together public-sector funders and commissioners with independent foundations, social and corporate investors, lottery funders and others. Our members invest in every aspect of Londoners, lives, from the arts to welfare, and they fund acr05S all 32 boroughs and the City of London. These funds are invested in London through a number of channels including the voluntary and community sectors, social enterprises and the private settor, as well as directly to Londoners. As funding and policy challenges continue, our priorities are to focus on funders working together better, with clearer priorities; new ways of working, challenging funders and providers; and modelling evidence- and intelligence-led 501utions. Our beliets We believe that Londoners should be at the heart of our work, and that of our members- with their needs, their strengths and their hopes driving developments in the funding community. We believe that effective and resilient civil society organisations are essential ta enabling London's people and communities to thrive. Equally, the systems that govern civil society are important determining factors in how effettive and efficient it can be. We believe that civil society organisations are best supported to meet the needs of Londoner5 when funding is based on a shared understanding of need, with good funding practices, and a collaborative approach to funding that ensures resources are channelled to the right places.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Account) for We believe that social Systems the policy framework within which civil society operates, and how funding is accessed by civil society organisations can be altered to meet the needs of Londoners better. This Outcome is underpinned by funders efficiently allocating resources, as well as collaborating with others to improve understanding of where funding is most needed and how best to channel support there. It is further driven by changes to policies and structures that affett civil society organisations, for which we believe funder5 can be active advocates. Our aims and objectives Our ambitions are to.. Enable a movement of members to have strong and trusted connections, based on shared values and ambitions Facilitate and lead collaborative programmes where only working together can achieve the change that's needed Drive a learning culture, where shared data, intelligence and insight lead5 to better decision-maklng and action To achieve this: We involve and inspire, convening with purpose so that people and organisations can embrace opportunities to grow together We inform and influence, seeking and sharing knowledge so that funding and policy environments meet Londoners, needs We innovate and incubate, exploring new ideas and approaches, and ensuring those with potential have the support to thrive Whilst working towards our ambitions we will also maintain our agility- responding to events and developments as they arlse in London, to ensure we are effective at addressing emerging needs. Public benefit We recognise that as a charity, London Funders has a duty to provide public benefit.. this helps guide our plans and activities. Close attention is paid to outcomes from all the work we do. As a second tier organisation, London Funders does not directly claim impact on communities. What we do, as honestly and accurately as we can, is identify the directly attributable results of our work and consult members about the contribution to their practice that our work has made, noting the improved visibility of funders in London, increased collaboration between them, and opportunities taken up for work in partnership with other organisations. The ways in which we seek to create public benefit are illustrated in an online theory of change, which shows how our activities result directly and indirectly in outcomes relating to funders, knowledge, collaboration and voice.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accoun ri For ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE IN 2024125 Chairfs report on behalf of the trustees I'm in the curious position of writing my first and probably last introduction to the London Funders report and accounts, A first following my election by members as Chair at our AGM in 2024, following the incredible nine years, service of David Farnsworth {more on marking his contribution later). Last as we've recently completed a review of the future governance of the charity, to ensure we remain agile and effective for the long-term. Members will be asked to approve that the charity's name be changed to Funders Together, enabling a family structure to emerge where London Funders can play its part alongside friends and partners to strengthen our communities in London and beyond. So for next year's accounts I may be writing to you as Chair of Funders Together, celebrating the work of the London Funders team and the partnerships strengthened with others working together for positive change. For now, it's my privilege to highlight the incredible things that have been achieved over the last year by the movement of members who together make London Funders. That movement grew in size over the year-with eight new members joining the family- and also in impact- with the launch of Collaboration Circle, the establishment of a research function, a boosted learning programme, connections forged with city funder networks across the globe, and system change through long-term collaborative funding programmes. This report details the success of these areas of work, with our thanks to the 2,164 of you who joined events over the last year, the 6,514 of you who read our newsletters and briefings, and everyone who has supported our work over 2024/25. On the subject of thank5,1 must record my own, on behalf of our movement, to David Farnsworth. His work as Chair over the last nine years has enabled our organisation to rise to the challenges our city and communities have faced-from responding to the Grenfell Tower fire and the covld- 19 pandemic, to ensurin8 that collaboration and friendship are at the heart of everything we do as we focus on what matters for the future. In recognition of David's service, and to celebrate his personal commitment to equity and justice, we created the Farnsworth Fellowship- an opportunity for people with lived experience of seeking refuge to come to work with us and our movement of members, bringing theirtalents to the table for the benefit of us all. I look forward to welcoming our first Fellow in the coming year, and to London Funders land Funders Together) continuing to ensure that equity and justice are at the heart of all that we do, My final thanks is to everyone who works so hard to make a difference to our city and our communities- the members of London Funders, my amazing colleagues on our staff team and Board, our funders, partners and friends- it is a joy to work alongside you all in our pursuit of a strengthened funding sector that can enable our communities to thrive. Jenny North, Chair

LONDON FUNDERS Report and .4c"Ounts for ACHIEVEMENTS IN 2024125 Our membership has continued to develop thi5 year as we welcomed eight new organisations, takin8 our total membership to 170 by the end of March 2025. Like our wider membership they are diverse in their size, aims and geographic remit. Our new members are: Hadley Trust Global's Make Some Noise The 8adur Foundation The Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art Balcombe Charitable Trust The Big Change Charitable Trust Rayne Foundation Sported We aim to equip funders with the knowledge and networks they need to fund a sustainable voluntary and community sector in London. At the heart of our work is a commitment to activity which aim to achieve tangible outcomes for our members. For 2024125 we set out five priority areas: l. Launching the new vehlcle for funder collaboration- with a new structure, Board of Directors and brand, to provide a space for communities and funders to work together, supporting the development of new collaborations in London and beyond. 2. Establlshin8 a new research function to strengthen funder insight and intelligence- produclng reports on the state of funding for advice, as well as for equity and justice infrastructure, and working in partnership with 360Giving on the launch of a new data platform for UKGrantmaking. 3. Strengthening our approach to sharing learning- extending the Festival of Learning, holding a new Big Network Day for all member-led networks, hosting our second member conference, and workin8 to create bridges between the academic and funding sectors to learn together. 4. Buildin8 connections beyond London to share and shape our work- engaging with UK and international networks of funders to bring learning to London and to share our work more widely. 5. Increasing the impact of our collaborative approache5 - piloting new ways of funding for the long-term through Propel, identifying opportunities to influence policy, practice and systemic change, and working in partnership with others to positively strengthen the funding settor in London. We delivered against these priorities whilst reaching across our membership and London's civil society to ensure engagement - with 2,164 people attending the 115 events we ran during the

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accou nts for year, 6,514 people reading our regular newsletters, and with 52,701 people interacting with our website. We said we would launch the new vehlcle forfunder colloborution - with a new strurture. Board of Directors ond brand to provide o spocelor communities andfvnders to work together, supporting the development of new collaborations in London and beyond... In 2024/25, Collaboration Circle transltioned from concept to operational reality, with the subsidiary company formally registered in April 2024. This marks a significant milestone in our ambition to create a dedicated space for funders and equity and justice organisations to pool pounds, people and power to tackle the most pressing issues facing communities. Building strong governance - Following principles agreed by the working group in 2023124, the London Funders Board established an independent Nominations Committee to recruit a Board of Directors. Both the Board and the Committee were designed to reflect our values, with 50% representation from funding organi5ations and 50% from equity and justice organisations. Since its establishment, the Board has focused on puttingthese principles into practice by: Developin8 a framework for deci5ion-making, risk management, and schemes of delegation Appointing key roles, including a Vice Chair and Treasurer, and opening a bank account with Unity Trust Bank Creating a sulte of policies and tools to enable effective governance and equitable collaboration Operational progress- The Collaboration Circle has secured VAT, HR, and legal advlce to ensure compliance and readiness for managing pooled funds. Alongside thi5 we've partnered with London Metropolltan University through an Innovate UK Knowledge Transfer Partnershlp, bringing academlc expertise to design a best-in-class model for pooled funding. Funding and collaboratlon5 - We have continued to advance discussions with two funders on a potential £35m pooled fund for Propel, offering long-term grants of up to seven years. The Collaboration Circle secured a £296k development grant from the National Lottery Community Fund to design and implement an equitable end-to-end grant management framework and ensure we are operationally ready for holding pooled funds. Alongside this we've engaged in conversations with 17 potential collaborations across the UK, with three in active development. Communications and brand - We launched the Collaboration Circle website and prospectus at the Festival of Learning and have continued to build visibility through social media and sector press. The response to the new brand has been ovenNhelmingly positive, reinforcing the appetite for collaborative approaches to funding. Collaboration Circle is now positioned as a unique space for funders and civil Society to co-define challenges, co-design solution5, and co-deliver funding programmes that drive systemic change.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accounts for We sold we would establish a new research funrtion to strengthen funder insight and intelligence - producing report5 in the year on the st¢7te offunding fvr advice andfor equity and justice infrastructure, and working in partnership with 360Giving on the launch of o new data plotform for UKGrantmoking. State of advlce funding- As part of our new research function aimed at enhancing funder insight, we conducted a comprehensive funding-mapping exercise for social welfare advice services across London. Funded by the Greater London Authority and delivered in partnership with 360Giving, the project combined quantitativ.e analysis of f.unding flows with 18 qualitative interviews conducted with major advice funders during the year. We ublished a re ort in November 2024. Key Findlngs: Short-term fundlng dominates.. Only 26% of grants run for longer than one year, high lighting a lack of stability for advice providers. Hlgh dependency on government: Approximately 40% of Income wlthin the cohort derives from government sources, representing £42.7 million in grants and £66,9 million in contracts. Fundin8 Is hlghly concentrated: Just 20 funders account for 77% of all grant funding directed to advice services. Persistent sector pressures: Funders report increasing strain on advice organisations stemmin8 from rising service demand, staffing challenges, and the complexity of client issues. Emerging funding trends: Several funders are now exploring advocacy support and systems-change work to tackle root causes, beyond traditional crisis-driven advice. Collaboration valued, but expansion needed: While there is a strong tradition of joint working in the sector, the report recommends deeper alignment through pooled resources, peer learning, and Integrated funding models. Equlty & Justice Infrastructure Mapping - This year, we launched a landmark research project to map the current state of funding for equity and justice infrastructure organisations across the UK. Funded by a group of aligned funders; The National Lottery Community Fund, the Greater London Authority, Lloyds Bank for England and Wales, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Trust for London, London Councils and City Bridge Foundation, and co-designed with sector partners, the project aimed to build foundational knowledge in a field where little formal research exists. We completed a literature review, which revealed a lack of dedicated studies on equity-focused infrastructure. This was followed by two sector-wide surveys, over ten stakeholder interviews with funders and local authorities, and detailed analysis of funding data for London-based organisations. The research has started to shape sector understanding, highlighting key questions around who funds equity infrastructure, how funding has changed over time, and what impact these organisations have on equity-led groups. We have built partnerships with peer organisations and academic institutions to strengthen our methodologi and share emerging insights. Findings have been shared with members and funders through insight meetings and the equity network, with a final report in development. This work positions London Funders as a key contributor to evidence-

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accounts for based funding strategy in equity and justice, helping funders identify gap5 and opportunities for investment. Literature Review Insights A review of 65 core documents revealed a significant gap.. there is no dedicated academic or grey literature focused specifically on equity & justice infrastructure organisations. Data from 60 UK funders (2021-221 showed that 5.70A of foundation investment in the justice sector went towards justice infrastructure, but only 0.30h supported community organising and people power initiatives. Funding Landscape Analysis of the 360Givlng dataset identified 698 active infrastructure organisations across the UK12020-211, with a total income of £901 million, equating to 24Yo of grants awarded by the UK'5 top 300 foundations. Within London, 176 active infrastructure organlsations secured £284 million, of which 89 specialised infrastructure organisations {based on our criterial held £216 million, representing 76% of the capital's NGO infrastructure income. Sources of Fundlng 25% of infrastructure income comes from government grants and contracts, and a further 8% from other grant-makers. NAVCA data (covering 187 infrastructure members) indicates 36% of funding is from local government, 21% from health bodies, and 180A from trusts and foundations. The report will be shared with Members in Autumn 2025. UKGrantmaking- In June 2024 the new UKGrantmakin website launched. This collaborative project, led by 360Giving, developed a new platform that brings together data on the landscape of grant making in the UK from 2022/23. The platform aims to strengthen grant making understanding, collaboration, decision-making, strategy, and practice in the sector. London Funders worked alongside Association of Charitable Foundations, Association of Charitable Organisatioris, UK Community Foundations and a variety of other organlsations supporting the funding and charitable sectors. There is a dedicated page for London on the platform, with commentary and case Studies from London Funders. Looking at this data alongside our bi-annual member audit we can see that our members gave out an estimated £704m in 8rants across London in 2022-23. Applyin8 the 90A average increase in grantmaking, across our members, this would be around £767m in 2023-24. This aligns Wlth 48% of our member5 telling us that they are giving out more funding than in previous year5 due to the cost-of-living cri515 and the lasting impacts of the pandemic. And how funders give out their money is chan8ing too. 29% of our members said they want to 'change how they fund, in the future, for reasons such as: Increasing larger, longer term/multi-year grants and moving away from shorter term investments Providing or moving towards more core and unrestricted support Co-funding with others Targeting funding and support towards specific groups/causes Increasing or exploring social investment

LONDON FUNDERS Repoft and A￿cOu nti for Increasing non-financial support alongside grants Engaging with VCS and infrastructure organisations to understand what types of funding are most helpful to them From the recipient data we can see that children and young people ICYPI are the largest community served. This reflects what our audit found, where 770A of our members fund CYP work and 620A of our members are funding work around poverty. We hope this new platform for Grantmaking and our reflections highlight how important it is to keep sharing data, allowing us to learn, collaborate and make positive change5 in funding. We sald we would strengthen our approach to sharlng learnlng - extending. the Festlval of Leorning, holding o new Big Network Dayfvr all member-led networks. hosting our second member conference, and working to create bridges between the academic ondfunding sectors to learn together. From 14- 23 May 2024, almost 900 people, representing over 100 funders came together for our third annual Festival of Learning. The Festival Is an opportunity for London Funders, members to share learning, provide challenge, and be inspired by colleagues and chan8emakers from across the capital and beyond. Categorised under five core themes (systemic change, participation, process, equity, and collaboration), the Festival programme featured over 30 sessions from funders and friends on a range of tOPlCs, from embedding intersectionality in funder practice to working collaboratively to change systems and so much more. On systemic change: After over a decade that's seen us move from crisis to crlsis, where charities and community groups are often left to 'pick up the pieces,, there is increasing recognition from funders that we need to do things differently. For many, thi5 involves supporting organisations and investing In work that tackles the root causes of an issue, not just the symptoms. Funders continued to emphasise the importance of addressing root causes, by investing in transformational, long-term 5yStemic work. They hi8hli8hted the need to scrutinise who holds power, adopt partnership-based approaches, and stay flexible amid shifting contexts. Learned examples included Renaisi's reflective inquiry into funders, power, City Bridge Foundation's Anchor programme with multi-year support, and the London Legal Support Trust's collaborative efforts in the advice sector. Key insights included the necessity for shared power, relational funding, transparent assumptions, and the courage to embrace messiness in systemic efforts. On power: A recurring theme was the value of participatory grantmaking- placing power and decision-making in the hand5 of lived-experience communities. Sessions led by Camden Giving and the Mayor'5 Fund for London highlighted how devolving funding authority require5 not just financial resources but practical sUPPOrts- like covering travel, childcare, and co-creating decision- making from the outset. Festival insights made it clear: participation is not optional, it's fundamental to justice, and success hinges on intentionally designing system5 that empower communities at every stage.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accounti fgr On participation: The Festival underscored the value of devolving decision-making to those with lived experience. Discussions focused on developing city-wide participatory infrastructure covering skills, tools, and mechanisms-through cr05S-5ector collaboration between council5, funders, and community organisations. Practical learnings included covering costs for participation {e.g. childcare, travell and embeddin8 community voices from the start of funding processes. While participatory budgeting pilots and the Mayorfs Fund for London's youth engagement initiatives showed promise, sessions stressed the need for early involvement to avoid tokenism. On process: Speakers highlighted that'how you fund is as important as what you fund,, calling for agile and experimental processe5 that respond to societal trends like Al, climate change, and evolving work cultures. Examples ranged from trialing reduced working weeks, to ethical grant acceptance policies and climate-responsive grantmaking by Cloudesley. Across sessions, there was consensus that internal culture determines whether even well-designed processes are effective- summed up aptly as "culture eats Strategy (and process) for breakfast" On equlty: The Festival sesslons this year demonstrated the variety of ways principles of equity and justice can be applied across all aspects of funding-with sessions exploring how to centre equity in evaluation practices, to implementing intersectionality and improving outcomes for organisations led by and for their communities. This includes reflective questioning of who benefits from funding, disaggregated evaluation of equity outcomes, and taking the time to understand long-term, systemic equity goals and moving beyond surface-level metrics to meaningful societal change. On collaboratlon: Collaboration emerged as a consistent thread across 5e55ion5 on systemic change, participation, and process. Funders recognised that no single organisation can shift systems alone success relies on partnerships, convening power, and connected ecosystems. Sessions included funder-led networks in advice and participatory budgeting sectors, pooled funds, and cross-sector projects. Participants shared how relational funding practices, notably those emphasised by City Bridge Foundation and the London Legal Support Trust, enhance collective effort and resilience. Members came together for our Big Network Day, bringing together our nine member-led networks for a half day of reflection and connection focused on the question: how can we come together to create meaningful change in London? The day was framed by a panel discussion consisting of Fozia Irfan (BBC Children in Need) and Natsayi Sithole IRenaisi-TSIP); who highlighted the power of collective action and responsibility to harness our shared assets and be willing to push each other to move further and faster as a key to creating change. Members then had a chance to meet in theirthematic groups to explore and share insights around what creating change - as it relates to their network focuses - could look like. The Network Chairs then shared key reflections from conversations throughout the day with each other and to the wider audience, sharing their thoughts about how the network-spaces could be used to support further collaboration, learning and create change. Key reflections included: addressing systemic

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accounti for inequality, the danger of using overcomplicated language, Rethinking risk and innovation, and moving forward together. At London Funders, Autumn Conference on 27 November, over 100 funders and community leaders united around a bold question: how can communities be truly in the driving seat? The di5CU55ion5, led by speakers from London and international cities including Nepal, Berlin, Toronto, and across the U.S., centred on balancing funder support with community autonomy- advisin8 funders to provide resource and capacity without seizing control. This focus reflects a growing understanding that sustainable impact requires shifting power, questioning traditional risk paradigms, and realigning. agendas with community priorities. A key theme was community wealth-building, with funders and local changemakers showcasing models - from community-owned assets to cooperative ownership and participative investment. Notably, community leader5 emphasised that wealth-building doesn't always requlre large-scale transformation. Instead, it can mean strengthening existing infrastructure to h elp communities weather economic uncertainties and establish foundations for future growth, This nuanced approach demonstrates how well-supported, locally rooted initiatives can yield both resilience and long-term change. The event reiterated that funders cannot rely on grants alone to 5UPPOrt grassroots organisations. Panel discussions highlighted the value of relational support- from critical friendship and peer networks to tailored HR and communications guidance- alongside financial resources. Moreover, this blend of material and relational backing is critical to creating safe, sustainable environment5 for community leaders navigating emotional, financial, and personal pressure We said we would build connections beyond London to share and shape our work- engaglng with UK and international networks ofAunders to brlng learnlng to London and to share our work more widely. Over the past year, we have strengthened our role as a connector and collaborator, creating spaces for funders to learn, share, and act together. Bullding relationships: We met with senior representatives from a wide range of members, including foundations, corporates, local authorities, and national funders. These conversations helped shape shared priorities and strengthen collaboration across London. We also connected with partners beyond the capital visiting regional funder forums in Belfast, Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool, Scotland, and Southend, and engaging with international organisations such as the Community Foundations of Canada, the City of Sydney, and the Majurity Trust in Singapore. Representing London Funders: Our team contributed to key sector events, including the Mayor of London's Civil Society Reception and the National Lottery Community Fund'5 England Portfolio Review. Internationally, we participated in the Philanthropy Asia Alliance Summit and the Philanthropy for Better Cities Forum in Hong Kong. These platform5 enabled us to bring learning back to London while sharing our approach with global peers.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and AccDUnlS for Learning and sharing: We deepened our engagement with UK-wide networks such as the Association of Charitable Foundations, the Association of Charitable Organisations, and 360Giving. These relationships supported our efforts to align with national priorities and share insights from London. Our Learning Hub provided a space for collaborative reflection, enabling members to explore challenges and opportunities together, and to draw on wider sector knowledge. Strengthening the ecosystem: Through these activities, we continued to build a more connected and informed funding community. By engaging beyond London, we ensured our work was shaped by diverse perspectives and contributed to broader sector learning. These connections have helped us amplify the voice of London's funders while remaining responsive to national and international developments. We sald we would increase the impact of our collaborotive approaches - piloting new ways of funding for the long-term through Propel, identifying opportunlties to influence policyp prortice and systemic change, and working in partnership with others to positively strengthen the funding sector In London. This year, we have continued to lead and strengthen Propel- an ambitious collaboration of funders and equity partners committed to tacklin8 Structural inequalities and drivin8 Systemic change. Propel aims to provide £IOOm over ten years to organisations closest to communities, and London Funders acts as the backbone for this work. Deepening collaboration and shared goals - Propel partners have spent the year clarifying our strategic ambitions, agreelng a framework that prioritises equity, systemic change, and bold fundlng. A key milestone was setting a target for 75% of grants to go to organisations led by and for the communities they serve. These shared goals now underpin the design of Propel's long- term grant offer. Piloting new funding approaches- We tested lighter-touch, relational 8rant-making processes through extension grants for or8anisations funded in Round l. This approach reduced due diligence requirement5 and strengthened trust between funders and grantees. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with grantees describing the experience as "shocking and relieving" in its simplicity and trust. Designing for the future - Work is well underway to launch Propel's long-term grants-up to seven years of funding for organisations driving systemic change. Partners have convened a Task and Finish group to design new processes, guidance, and participatory approaches. Funded organisations have been central to this design, contributing through networking days, paid sense- checking sessions. and.monthly Systems Sessions exploring different approaches to change. Learning and reflection - Our learning partner, IVAR, has facilitated workshops and interviews with fvnders and equity partners to capture insights and identify barriers to embedding new way5 of working. These reflective spaces are rare in the sector and have helped strengthen trust and

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accou nts for collaboration. IVAR also worked with our team to explore the challenges and opportunities of holding the centre of such a complex initiative. Looking ahead - By March 2025, we aim to announce Propel's long-term grant offer, 8ivin8 a full year for co-design and participatory decision-making before current grants end in 2026. This next phase will embed lived experience and grantee voice at every stage, ensuring that Propel remains a bold, equity-driven collaboration shaping the future of funding in London.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accounti for PLANS FOR 2025126 Through engagement with members, civil society groups and partners across sectors we have developed a clear strategy for the period through to 2030, which we will continue to deliver against during 2025126. We've clarified our purpose as being to bring funders together to build a better London by taking action on what matters to our city and our communities. We've outlined our ambitions for the years ahead, which are to: Enable a movement of members to have strong and trusted connections, based on shared values and ambitions Facilitate and lead collaborative programmes where only working together can achieve the change that's needed Drive a learning culture, where shared data, intelli8ence and Insight leads to better decislon-making and action Whilst working towards our ambitions we will also maintain our agility- responding to events and developments as they arise in London, to ensure we are effective at addressing emerging needs.

LONDON FUNDERS Report and Accou n rs for Statement of Trustees Responsibilities The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees, annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affair5 of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resource5 of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to.. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting record5 that are sufficient to show and explain the charity'5 transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charlty and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made there under. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of the financlal statements and other information included in annual reports may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent Audito￿8 Report To the members of London Funders Oplnlon We have audited the financial statements of London Funders for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, statement of cash flows and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102.. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). Oplnlon on Ilnanclal 8tat•mont• In our opinion the financial statements.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended.. have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice., and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. Ba•1• lor oplnlon We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant lo our audit of the financial statements in Ihe UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate lo provide a basis for our opinion. Conclu8lon• r•latlng to golng conc•rn In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or colleclively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect10 going con￿rn are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other inf0m￿tion The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 20

Independent Auditorfs Report To the membars of London Fundern In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is lo read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements Of a material misstatement of the other informalion. If. based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Oplnlon on othor rnatt•r prn•crfbed by the Companlos Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit.. the information given in the trustees, report (incorporating the directors, report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial 5tatements', and the trustees, report (incorporating the directors, report) have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. Mattern on whlch w• arn r•qulr•d to r•port by oXC•Ptlon In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environmenl oblained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees, Annual Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by. us-, or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and relurns., or certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made., or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. RMpon•lbllftlM of thg trusto As explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view and for such internal control as they deterrnine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 21

Independent AudIt0￿$ Roport To tho members of London Fundors In preparing the financial statements, the Iruslees are responsible for assessing the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related lo going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Our responslbllltl•• for the audlt of the Ilnanclal statomonts Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due lo fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS {UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are sel out below. In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularlties, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following.. We enquired of management, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concern ing the charity's policies and procedures relating to.. Detecting, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance., Detecting of the risks of fraud and responding whether they have knowledge of any actual or suspected fraud,. The internal controls in place to mltigate risks related lo fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates In, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundarnental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience. We performed analytical procedures to detect any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misslatement due to fraud, Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is localed on the Financial Reporting Cou ncil's website at-. Iwww.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibilitiesl. This description forms part of our auditor's report. 22
