I helped set up NPC because I knew there were other donors passionate about generating a social return with their donations.

Our programmes
NPC runs large-scale programmes to change systems and build collaboration. But as a charity ourselves, we rely on support from our donors and funders to deliver these. Supporting our work helps make an even bigger difference to the people at the heart of charities–those they are there to help.
Our current programmes include:
Everyone’s Environment: Climate change and nature loss don’t affect all people equally. Some of the most disadvantaged and marginalised people in society will be the worst affected. But they currently don’t have a voice in environmental decision making. Everyone’s Environment is a collaboration of over 80 social and environmental charities looking to change that. We are working together to accelerate practical action to mitigate the social impacts of climate change and nature loss. Working closely with charities who know the communities they serve best we are empowering disadvantaged and marginalised people to have their concerns heard.
Youth Mental Health: Children and young people’s mental health is facing an unprecedented crisis. There is an urgent need for collective action to support systemic change in this area. Our research, published in June 2024, explored what’s causing the increased need and identified six key areas where funders can make a difference. We are working to build a new collaborative programme working closely with charities and philanthropists to identify solutions.
Inclusion and transformation: We are developing ways of working to help charities and funders become more open, inclusive, equitable and collaborative. For example, our free guides on Centring lived experience and Monitoring, evaluation, and learning with trust and equity help to improve charity and grant maker practices. Our Open For All programme will work with foundations and philanthropists, charities and social enterprises, infrastructure organisations and communities across the UK and US to build new initiatives that open up information for the benefit of all.
How you can be involved
We are seeking to build powerful partnerships with philanthropists, foundations, impact investors, businesses, and others to maximise social impact. By bringing people together to address pressing social challenges through our programmes and free resources we can help charities, funders, and philanthropists make an even bigger difference to the lives of the people they support.
We would love to hear more about your priorities in the social impact space, and how we may be able to collaborate. For further information please contact Helen Osment, Head of Development.
