Insights from our response to COVID-19

10 September 2020

In this Insights report, we summarise how we responded and what we learned about ourselves as a funder as well as what organisations we support have told us about how they've managed and some of the risks they now face.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been focused on supporting organisations we fund. This report reflects on our 545 Fast Response Grants and draws together learning from 323 organisations we support.
