Stonewall Annual Report 2024/25

Stonewall's Annual Report 2024/25, covering the year to the end of March 2025, sets out a period of change and transformation for the charity: the appointment of a new CEO, the publication of a new strategy, set of values and visual identity, and the launch of Proud Employers, its workplace inclusion programming. The report is open about the underlying deficit of recent years and the action taken to address it, which the charity says is leading to a stronger financial position in the first nine months of its 2026 financial year, set against a turbulent global context for LGBTQ+ rights and reductions in funding for the movement.
