Public sector professionals

We are proud to be a part of Bradford and we are always keen to use our knowledge and expertise to work with Bradford Council and local authorities to make our communities healthier and happier.

We also have an interest in policies and legislation at a national and international level, and our research has been used to inform and influence government priorities in the UK, in many countries across the world, and at the United Nations.

Talk to us about the strategic advice and consultancy we can provide at all levels based on our high-quality research.
