Research and Data Consultancy for Nonprofits and Mission-Driven Organisations

ABOUT

DataThrive provides research and data consultancy to nonprofits and mission-driven organisations across the UK.Founded from firsthand experience in the public sector where passionate teams often lacked specialist research support. DataThrive exists to bridge that gap. We work with charities, social enterprises, and public sector teams to build practical monitoring systems, deliver rigorous research, and turn messy data into clear insights.Our approach is designed for nonprofit realities: realistic timelines, plain language, tools you can use, and support that builds capacity rather than dependency. Whether you're proving impact to funders, making strategic decisions, or understanding what's working, we provide affordable, high-quality consultancy tailored to how you work.

Cady Clark

Founder & lead consultant

I'm a researcher and data analyst with a background in psychology (BSc, MSc) and five years of experience across public and social impact settings.I've evaluated national programmes, designed monitoring frameworks for local authorities, and helped organisations turn messy data into insights that inform service redesign, strategic planning, and funding decisions. I also volunteer as an Impact Manager for an LGBT+ charity with a long history of volunteering across youth, animal, and environmental causes.What drives me: using research and data to empower rather than overwhelm—helping you demonstrate impact, make better decisions, and get back to the work that matters.
