Carnegie UK wants to put wellbeing at the centre of decision-making across the UK and Ireland.

Project summary
Carnegie UK is a charitable foundation focussed on putting wellbeing at the heart of decision making. While we are well known for producing high quality research, we also believe we have a crucial role making the case for change.
Our Communications and Advocacy programme pushes for change by organising the delivery of:
- Expert commentary for journalists and media.
- Detailed evidence for governments and politicians.
- Events that bring people with different perspectives and expertise together.

Every member of Carnegie UK’s team plays a role in supporting this programme.
