Charlton Athletic Communty Trust (CACT) has announced the findings of a research project into the impact of the charity’s work across communities in South East London and Kent. The key finding of the report concludes that every £1 spent by CACT produces £6.89 of social value. The impact report also explored how CACT’s work improved community and social wellbeing in three specific areas:

• Improving levels of Education & Employment
• Reducing Crime
• Improving Health

The report is the conclusion of a 12 month study conducted by CACT’s Research & Development Department and has been developed and independently verified by the University of Greenwich.
