Society Matters Foundation is our voice on the regional and national stage, challenging policy makers to unlock the potential of the North of England and the people who live there. We achieve this by highlighting progressive policy positions through research, policy papers, transformative conversation, and insightful events.

We're proud to be part of Society Matters Group:

This Is The North brings bold, thought-provoking conversations about inequality, creativity and the future of the North of England. Hosted by our Foundation's founder, Alison Dunn, the podcast challenges the systems holding our region back and showcases the people driving real change. Proudly supported by Society Matters Foundation.

"I think this is incredibly important. The coming together of organisations, the convening of people who are working on the front line, improving people’s lives, tackling poverty, solving these social issues, looking at issues around transport and housing insecurity, are absolutely crucial."
