Lloyd's Market
Charity Awards
About the awards
The Lloyd’s of London Foundation is proud to support causes that are close to the hearts of our people in the Lloyd’s Corporation and in the Lloyd’s market. We know our colleagues across the market dedicate their time and efforts to volunteer and fundraise for charities they are passionate about – so we want to help them do that and celebrate the people who have gone above and beyond for a charity close to their hearts. To recognise their hard work winners receive a donation to the charity they have supported.
