Governance

The Social Research Unit is governed by an independent charity, the Warren House Group at Dartington. The trustees are Roger Bullock (Emeritus Professor of Social Policy, Bristol), Jonathan Bradshaw (Professor of Social Policy, York), Lisa Christensen (Director of Children’s Services, Norfolk), Gillian Downham (Barrister, London) and Owen Keenan (Managing Director, Middlequarter Dublin).
 
Jonathan Bradshaw chairs an independent scientific review of the Unit’s work, which takes place every four years. The next is scheduled for the spring of 2012. In 2008 the team of scrutineers comprised Leon Feinstein (Department of Social Justice), Gordon Harold (Otago University) and Ian Sinclair (University of York).
