The London Community Foundation

Who we are

London is one of the world's greatest cities, but for too many people opportunity remains out of reach. Alongside extraordinary wealth, many Londoners face poverty, exclusion and inequality every day.

At The London Community Foundation, we believe a fairer London is possible. We support the grassroots organisations and community leaders who are transforming lives in their neighbourhoods, often drawing on their own lived experience to tackle the challenges their communities face.

By connecting generous funders with inspiring local organisations, we help channel funding, resources and support to where they can have the greatest impact. Together, we're strengthening communities, creating opportunities, and building a London where everyone has the chance to thrive.

If you're passionate about social justice, community empowerment and creating lasting change across London, we'd love to hear from you. Join us and play your part in helping build a stronger, fairer city for everyone.

Our culture and values

Our culture is rooted in a shared commitment to creating a fairer London. We believe in the power of communities to drive change and are guided by our values of being Equitable, Accountable, Responsive, Collaborative and Impactful. We foster an inclusive, supportive and flexible working environment where people are trusted to bring their expertise, ideas and lived experience to their work. We value diversity of thought, encourage collaboration and innovation, and are committed to helping our colleagues grow and thrive. Together, we work with integrity and purpose to create lasting impact for London's communities.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Creating a fairer London starts with us.  We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences and are working to remove barriers to recruitment and progression. If you're excited about a role but don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway — we value potential, diverse perspectives and lived experience as much as direct experience. Guided by our values of being Equitable, Accountable, Responsive, Collaborative and Impactful, we are building a workplace where everyone can belong, contribute and thrive.
