# Impact Stories
Impact Stories is a London-based strategy, insight and evaluation consultancy that combines research excellence with programme evaluation expertise. Formed through the merger of Research Stories and In2Impact, the firm delivers evidence-led consulting to organisations across public and private sectors, both domestically and internationally.
The consultancy serves funders, implementers, government departments and cultural institutions seeking to understand impact and drive strategic decision-making. Their client base includes the British Council, the Department for Education and major development assistance organisations working across Asia and beyond.
What distinguishes Impact Stories is their dual capability in rigorous research methodology and impact evaluation frameworks. Rather than delivering raw data, they synthesise findings into compelling, actionable narratives that stakeholders can act upon. Their work spans demand assessment for development projects, soft power perception studies, cultural relations programme evaluation and education initiative impact measurement.
Their approach emphasises listening to client needs before undertaking high-quality analysis, ensuring insights remain contextually relevant. Recent projects demonstrate sector diversity: evaluating a £30m Cultural Protection Fund, assessing tourism investment potential in remote Nepal, measuring the Mandarin Excellence Programme's effectiveness, and exploring UK international perceptions among global youth.
The firm specialises in translating complex data into strategic stories that drive institutional and programmatic change, making them particularly valuable for organisations where evidence needs to inform both learning and decision-making.
