We examine the characteristics of two charities who have performed well during the pandemic, and suggest what other charities could learn from them.
Our blog this week explores the disproportionate impact of Covid-19 on minority ethnic communities and grassroots organisations. We also share some data from our work with under-researched audiences (including Black, Asian and other minority ethnic groups).
It is well known that Black, Asian and other ethnic minority communities are largely under-researched in the charity sector (and beyond). In 2019, we established a yearly research syndicate to explore how these audiences engage with charities. In this free report, we release some of the key findings from our November 2019 - January 2020 research.
This weekend we continued our series of polls to understand public reactions to the pandemic and charities.

Explore our results in this week's blog.
The LGBTQ+ community remain largely under-researched in the charity sector. We recently ran a survey to learn more about how and why some LGBTQ+ identifying people engage with charities.
We know certain groups and communities have experienced the coronavirus pandemic differently. So what about different nations? In this week's blog, we look at opinions in the devolved nations of Scotland and Wales, examining attitudes towards the handling of the pandemic and the charity sector itself.

Our Charity Brand Evaluator (CBE) is a biannual survey dedicated exclusively to charity brands. In this week's blog, we highlight some key findings from the latest wave of research.
Explore the role charities can play in ensuring the environment remains at the top of the agenda amidst the economic challenges that lie ahead, with insights from our research with the general public and politicians.
