OUR NEWS AND VIEWS FROM THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SECTOR
Current projects
We are funded by a number of charitable foundations and trusts to develop new analysis and policy on behalf of the crime and justice sector. We use this funding to collaborate on research with public bodies, charities and other organisations, providing them with insights into their data which deepen our understanding of the issue as a whole. For more information about our current projects, see below. If you'd like to get in touch, you can contact us here or email contact@crestadvisory.com. Thank you.
