Bridge Group celebrates 10 years of using research to promote social equality
Join us as we mark 10 years since we registered as a charity
We’ll be celebrating throughout 2025
Sixteen years ago, six volunteers resolved to stop discussing social equality, and to do something about it. The result was the Bridge Group, which convened researchers and expert practitioners to inform policy papers.
Then in June 2015, the Bridge Group registered as a charity and became a non-profit consultancy dedicated to using independent research as a catalyst for evidence-based social change. We are celebrating the tenth anniversary of this throughout 2025.
Anniversary blogs
“The Bridge Group exists because opportunity should be earned, not inherited – and because evidence, when used well, can build a world where more people realise their potential.”
Still to come
We invite our friends, partners, clients, benefactors, beneficiaries, staff and trustees to look back at what we have achieved, but also forward to help us shape the next ten years. Please contact us with your ideas, comments and testimonials.
