We create and interrogate evidence of what works so together we can drive change where it matters most.
Our research shines a light on the issues affecting children and young people and informs fundamental decisions to improve policy and practice.
We identify and fill gaps in evidence, uncover unknown needs, and identify what works and why.
Our own evidence and our interrogation of wider research drives the design, implementation and improvement of all our programmes. It also underpins our policy positions and gives credibility to our calls to action.
Young people are at the heart of our research approach. Through a trained team of Young Research Advisers, young people shape our research questions, co-design and test our methods and translate information into real world insight.
