An education system and a labour market where background is no barrier

 
 

Our work

The Bridge Group is an independent research charity promoting socio-economic inclusion through evidence, insight and collaboration.

We do this by working with organisations across sectors, asking the right questions, uncovering what works, and turning data-led insights into meaningful change.

Our vision is an education system and a labour market where background is no barrier – and everyone, wherever they started in life, has the chance to realise their potential.

Clients + supporters

We work with organisations across sectors, including employers, charities, universities and outreach providers. We ask the right questions, uncover what works, and use data-led recommendations to strengthen educational and career outcomes. We also undertake our own research into broader issues of socio-economic inclusion, with the support of donations and grants from individuals, foundations and employers.
