LGF Business Plan 2008-09

This Business Plan, and the process utilised to underpin this work, demonstrates a growing confidence and an increasingly optimistic outlook for the year ahead for the Lesbian & Gay Foundation.

2008/09 sees significant projected growth for the agency, with a minimum 15% increase on projected income and expenditure, (with 83% of our income secured at this point in the new financial year). Combined with a move towards a matrix management model of working, the trustees can expect to see efficiency and effectiveness improved and increased as the year unfolds.

A drive towards more appropriate staffing levels commensurate with our outputs, a root and branch review of all of our operational services to lead them more meaningfully into the next phase of our development, and a commitment to reach out and more actively support the LGB voluntary and community sector, are just some of the highlights from an annual programme fundamentally committed to growth, excellence and consolidation in equal measures.

In the coming year the Directors intend to ensure that the LGF fully comes into its own as THE lesbian, gay and bisexual peoples charity of choice, committed to Ending Homophobia and Empowering People.
