In the UK, the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) has appointed TSRC Director John Mohan as a Trustee on its Board.

NatCen is a not-for-profit and registered charity which 'aims to promote a better-informed society through high quality social research'. Mohan (pictured) helped establish the Third Sector Research Centre (TSRC) in 2008 and is now its Director. TSRC works on the resources, roles and relationships of third sector organisations, and the impacts and contributions these organisations make. He is also Professor of Social Policy at the University of Birmingham, with research interests spanning social geography, health policy and the role and contribution of the voluntary sector.

board Chairman Sir Stuart Etherington comments: 'John is a natural addition to NatCen's Board of Trustees as the organisation focuses on building its expertise into new areas of cross-cutting research topics and methods. We are pleased to continue adding to the depth of knowledge and experience on the Board and welcome John's enthusiasm for championing research excellence and strengthening NatCen's evidence base'.
