London’s insurance market has supported veterans and their families through the Lloyd’s Veterans Charity for more than 200 years. We work with the Lloyd’s and City Branch of the Royal British Legion and the Lloyd’s Military Network to put the market’s corporate and individual giving to work efficiently by making grants to established charities. We focus particularly on mental health and employment organisations, but support others too. Formerly the Lloyd’s Patriotic Fund, the LVC aims especially to fund organisations which have been unable to raise sufficient support elsewhere to meet their potential for veterans and their families, despite their good work.
