About us
About us
Hi, I’m Alex Caton-Bradley, founder of AC Research. I’m a psycholgical scientis by training and a researcher by trade, with a background in psychology, business, and forensics.
I created this consultancy because I believe that research shouldn’t be confusing, academic for the sake of it, or stuck in dusty journals. It should be practical. Purposeful. Built for people making real decisions in real contexts.
Whether you're a charity applying for funding, a startup refining your product, or a team trying to understand your impact — I’m here to help you use research to move forward with clarity.
What we bring
Over the last five years, I’ve presented at Parliament, worked for local councils, and helped secure medical certifications nad grants. I’ve supported clients from small social impact organisations to corporate companies — always applying the same principle: make evidence useful.
This work is grounded in:
Academic rigour (but never academic arrogance)
A deep respect for your goals and values
Clear, honest communication — no jargon, no fluff
Good research is about more than stats or structure — it’s about listening, asking the right questions, and being open to the answers. I approach each project with curiosity, care, and a commitment to quality.
Whether we’re writing a report, analysing data, or building a whole research plan from scratch, you can expect:
Clear processes
Real collaboration
Transparent pricing
Work that’s grounded, ethical, and designed to be used — not shelved
Because we’re small — and that’s a strength. You’ll work directly with me, get personalised insight, and know that your project won’t be passed around a team of strangers. I bring the same energy to a two-page proposal as I do to a long-term evaluation framework.
Clients like SUBU and AirDrate have chosen AC Research to:
Design research that stands up to scrutiny
Turn messy data into clear insights
Build confidence before a funding application or product launch
If that sounds like something you need — let’s talk.
