Today, we are pleased to share our 2024 ‘A Year of Impact’ review – which captures our charitable mission in practice and showcases just some of the fantastic work we have achieved in partnership with individuals and communities across the globe last year, who are working together to tackle the world’s biggest safety challenges.
In 2024, the Foundation funded 50 new projects in 18 countries, investing over £15 million to support our mission to engineer a safer world. Last year, we launched our new strategy for 2024-2029 which focusses on three interconnected priority areas: Safer Maritime Systems, Skilled People for Safer Engineering, and Safer, Sustainable Infrastructure. We will also continue to invest in the Foundation’s own assets and expertise which are our maritime heritage and safety evidence and insight. This review of our impact shows how we are already making a big difference in these areas, but we did not do this by ourselves, as our Chief Executive, Ruth Boumphrey, explains:
“I am so grateful for everyone who helps us put our mission into action: our colleagues, our global grants community, and our partners, who all share our values and our safety goals.
“From fishing safety to artificial intelligence, and from maritime law to dealing with the risks from shipwrecks around the world, we continue to work with incredible partners, including our colleagues at Lloyd’s Register, whose expertise in shipping safety makes a big difference in supporting our work towards a safer maritime system. The collaboration, innovation, and dedication of all our partners have been the key to the progress and difference we have made together in 2024.”
It has been a year of remarkable change for Lloyd’s Register Foundation, and we would like to extend a big thank you to all our partners and friends for their support throughout the last 12 months. We look forward to the opportunities that 2025 brings, as we continue to work together to make the world a safer place.
