We’re here because social research has the power to make life better.

As Britain’s leading centre for independent social research, we have over 40 years’ experience of listening to the public and making sure their voice is heard.

The research we do helps government and charities make the right decisions about the big issues and we’re passionate about ensuring its widest possible impact on the world around us.

Our reputation for delivering relevant and robust research is down to our policy sector specialists, survey methodologists, data analysts and expert quantitative and qualitative researchers.

As a non profit organisation we are never compromised by commercial or political agendas.
