Changing things for the better
Ultimately our aim is to change things for the better.
The Research and Campaigns team collects evidence, which we have been given from our clients which affects many others.
We spot unfair practices and policies, which can make things harder for people in West Sussex and Nationally.
We gather this evidence to build a powerful message that we pass on to people and companies who make and influence decisions that affect everyone.
