Findings from The Robertson Trust's Grant Holder Survey 2022
This report shows the findings from our first grant holder survey under our current strategy. The aim of the survey was to help us to understand our effectiveness as a funder and to identify areas where we can make improvements.
We commissioned NPC to analyse and report on the findings to ensure that grant holders’ responses were anonymous and the findings were objective.

2023 Grant Holder Survey - Customer Service Report
In June 2023, we hosted a survey for our grant holders. To ensure anonymity for respondents, we commissioned NPC to analyse the findings. The findings from this survey have been divided into two reports. One focuses on customer service questions which allow us to see how we were are working as a funder, and what we could improve to be more effective. The other shows what our grant holders are doing (if anything) around broader issues of social change. It also helps us to see where we might be able to offer better support to organisations.
This publication is the customer service report. We have also included the link to the report on social change below.
