Strategic Plan
​The second Strategy Away Day of the charity was held in February 2024, culminating in the creation and adoption of a Strategic Plan covering strategic priorities over the next 5 years to 2029. The Strategic Plan is based around key priorities and ambitions, alongside relevant strategic actions. It should be viewed as a working plan with continuous monitoring of progress, to be amended annually in response to changing needs and requirements. 

Our key priorities and ambitions:

• Research
• Partnerships
• Sustainability

In addition to the above, the creation of a Communications Strategy, to support the work of the Research and Partnerships Working Groups is being developed. 

The Foundation's strategy and policies are reviewed at Board meetings and through setting key objectives for governance, administration, investment and grant making. Strategy Away Days are held at least every five years and provide a forum to reflect on the impact and future direction for the charity. The Strategic Plan and its actions are reviewed at each Board meeting, with subgroups, actions and timescales assigned to each priority. Consideration was also given to meeting the public benefit during review of the charity’s own objectives.
