Who we are

NPC is the think tank and consultancy for the social sector.

We help charities, foundations, philanthropists, impact investors, social enterprises, businesses, and the public sector to maximise social impact in the lives of the people they serve.

Innovating

At NPC we create, develop, and test new ideas

We don’t believe in change for change’s sake, but if we’re serious about creating positive social change then we all need to get out of our comfort zones and adapt.
