Publications

At Northern Rock Foundation we try to learn from good practice, to share ideas within the voluntary sector and, where appropriate, to influence the policies and practices of others.

The publications section features Think, the series concerning research we have commissioned, Insight, which presents lessons from grants we have made and other key pieces of research including the recent reports Dementia: A North East Perspective and Making an Impact: Measuring and encouraging the progress of individuals in voluntary sector youth projects. This page will also feature reports from other organisations’ research which we have grant-funded and from collaborations with other funders.

The Foundation has taken particular interest in issues relating to Domestic Abuse and Sexual Exploitation. Research reports on these topics are available in separate sections.

Reports are shown in order of publication, with the most recent first.
