Founded in 2002 by a group of mental health professionals determined to understand the impact of their work, today our network includes mental health providers, education settings, cultural and community services, local authorities, professional bodies and research institutions from across Europe and beyond.
CORC is a project of Anna Freud and sits within the Applied Research and Evaluation team. In taking forward our mission, CORC makes a specific contribution to achieving their broader purpose.
CORC’s vision is for all children and young people’s wellbeing support to be informed by real-world evidence so that every child thrives.
Our mission is to promote the meaningful use of evidence to enable more effective child-centred support, services and systems to improve children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing.
We hold data relating to mental health and wellbeing outcomes of more than 400,000 children and young people in the UK. We support others to gather and understand their own data. We build expertise about using this information to improve support.
