Research and insights

We use our expertise, research, and strategic partnerships across the giving world, to bring you insights about donors’ behaviour, amplify the needs of charities, and make giving part of the national conversation.

Every CAF story starts somewhere


Founded in 2017, the North East Young Dads and Lads Project (NEYDL), a charity supporting young men under the age of 25, has rapidly grown and established a strong presence in its area.

Following its initial success, NEYDL was looking to expand and diversify its income streams to support the expansion of its services.

This is where CAF came in. We helped the NEYDL leadership team understand how they could develop relationships with relevant businesses as part of a cohesive corporate strategy, including what the charity could ask for and how to ask for it.
