Company Profile

Diffley Partnership

Company Overview

Our experienced research and insight professionals work closely with organisations across the public, private and third sectors, helping them make confident decisions grounded in robust evidence and analysis.
We cover a broad range of policy areas, bringing depth and flexibility to every assignment.
No two projects are the same. We tailor every approach to our clients’ needs, combining primary research- including large-scale surveys, qualitative research, and deliberative programmes like Citizens’ Assemblies- with rigorous desk research. We gather the views and experiences of a wide range of individuals, including stakeholders and community members.
Our work requires careful planning, strong project management and clear, effective communication. In all cases, this work is in line with the highest professional standards, ensuring quality, integrity and reliability at every stage.
Alongside, we run flagship tracking studies Understanding Scotland and Understanding Business. These provide regular, high-quality insights into public and business opinion.
We turn complex data into clear, compelling outputs—bringing findings to life through engaging visuals and practical recommendations that drive action and change. Our insights regularly feature across broadcast, print and online media.
