Partner with us

Purposeful design that delivers public benefit is at the heart of everything that we do at Design Council. Collaboration is a key part of the design process, and by working in partnership with other charities, governments and corporations we are able to achieve so much more.

We’re proud of the impact we’ve already been able to achieve through our partnerships, drawing on our long history of design leadership, market-leading design tools, and extensive network of expert practitioners. You can see examples of our current funded programmes and past success stories in the case studies below.

There are a number of ways to work in partnership with us, including: funding a programme to tackle a major social challenge; supporting a campaign to provide design education, or sharing research resources in order to understand a particular issue around how design relates to business or public policy.

If you’re interested in partnering with us please email info@i-dc.uk or call 020 740 5277, ideally sharing a brief description of your project in order to be directed to one of our experts in your area of interest.
