    It’s annual putting (electronic) pen to paper time — so a few short reflections on what we’ve learnt at over the past ten years, and what this might mean for our work over the next ten. If any of this is of interest, do please get in touch!

    What we've been up to this year: investing in community assets, redesigning playgrounds, testing content with a conscience, integrating debt advice in talking therapies, a newspaper campaign, and scoping new work on adolescent mental health. Your sort of thing? Do get in touch!

    “at the lower bound of 1.5C ... over 80 per cent of carbon in the ground would be stranded and theoretically worthless. Even at 2C, 59 per cent of fossil fuel reserves would be stranded” Vital read on fossil fuel investments in a low carbon world

    Spend some time with this thread if you can - they're thinking hard about the complex, oft ignored relationship between investment of endowment & investment of it's proceeds. Big, live question. always seemed particularly insightful on this

    What a great week — began the Air We Breathe campaign with , joined the Funders coalition on climate change alongside , and shared learnings on using all of our assets in support of our mission. Very proud of the brilliant team behind these!

    In this light, and as with an increasing number of foundations, we see as an important complement to our ability to effect change in the world. Of course, it is for each organisation to decide whether this works for them. Our only advice is to give it a go! [13/13]

    ... this often combines with a worldview that the most efficient route to impact is through a charitable grant. In our experience, neither of these is necessarily true. Rather allows us to access a type of impact than might otherwise be open to us through other means [12]

    A summary — in as much as we have one — is that there is, perhaps, an orthodoxy: that endowments are somehow separate from the organisations whose missions they enable, rather than one of their most powerful tools ... [11]

    We’re grateful to build on the work of and others. For those considering we have learned that it takes time, ambition and resources. Then again, these are all things that foundations have in good supply! [10]

    ... one we would describe as ‘impact-managed,’ where our input is supporting established funds to increase the depth of their impact. The other we would describe as ‘catalytic,’ where our capital is helping newer funds get off the ground. We think both have value [9]

    Third, we have taken a portfolio approach to our impact investments. The common factor is that all our investments have a financial return commensurate with their risk. In practice, this has generated two broad types of investment ... [8]

    Second, we have centred our efforts towards our mission. We are an foundation. This means we are investing in sectors like housing and employment that go much wider than healthcare alone, and have set the centre of our approach to be underserved urban communities [7]

    In essence, the idea is that by testing whether we can deploy significant investments through an impact lens, we are really asking ourselves whether we can deploy all of our endowment investments in this way [6]

    (NB: we differentiate these endowment investments, which need to make a financial return, from our ‘spend‘ side, where we offer a range of funding and non-financial support depending on what can best help our partners achieve change — etc) [5]

    There are three key ideas that frame our approach. First, we have decided to run our activities from our endowment, rather than from its proceeds. The reason is scale — as we are a permanent endowment, we keep the majority of our resources in investments [4]

    We’ve been asking this question for a little while, and this paper sets out some of what we have learned so far. Our model is just that — one model — but we hope it prompts useful questions for others’ thinking about impact investing. Do please RT! [3]

    The idea itself is very simple: all investments have an impact in the world, positive or negative. Are there ways to use endowments — and not just their proceeds — to support charitable purposes? Indeed, is there a responsibility to? [2]

    [Thread] As with many other endowed philanthropies, we spend a lot of time thinking about how to use the 5% of assets we spend each year to achieve a greater impact in the world. But what about the other 95%? Or, put another way, what’s an endowment for?
