ESIP in the Sunday Times

As part of our continuing development and research we are working with other organisations to identify the impact we have on our students. One of the organisations we work with is New Philanthropy Capital through the use of their Well-Being Measure to identify changes in resilience and well-being in the Emerging Scholars.

NPC today published a report on the decline in childrens' well-being and as part of the press coverage for that report we were asked to contribute to the press release and speak to a Sunday Times journalist. We are pleased that ESIP was mentioned in the Sunday Times, 'i' and Mail on Sunday as well as appearing on a number of websites of regional and local press.
