Our latest annual report is here
Our 2024–25 annual report is out now. It looks back on a year shaped by the experiences and generosity of the engineering community.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Stories from engineers who reached out to Foothold during difficult times
- The progress we made thanks to your support
- The priorities shaping our work for the year ahead, based on what engineers have told us they need.
The needs of engineers and their families don’t stand still, and neither do we. Thank you for making our work possible. We’ll keep listening, learning and adapting so we can help the engineering community thrive and handle whatever life brings.
