What our clients say

Ecorys has played a key role in managing the Reducing Parental Conflict Challenge Fund. Ecorys have been a valued partner from the outset, working at pace to ensure the Fund was set up within tight timescales and supporting at all stages from the application process, to gathering and reporting learning and providing an effective link between DWP and the projects throughout.

DWP plans for 2021-22 build on the overall progress so far. DWP secured up to £11m in the 2020 Spending Review to build on the success of the current phase of the Reducing Parental Conflict (RPC) programme during 2020-21.
