It took over the function of the Higher Education Staff Development Agency (HESDA), based in Ingram House in Sheffield. It was incorporated as a company in October 2003, and registered as a charity in February 2004.[2]
In March 2018, LFHE merged with the Equality Challenge Unit and the Higher Education Academy to form Advance HE.[3]
