Storytelling and research that
inspires change

At Couper Communications, we believe stories have the power to shift hearts, minds, and systems. Our Storytelling & Research service uncovers the evidence behind the issues helping good causes expose injustice, hold power to account, and drive lasting impact.

We work with charities, NGOs, social enterprises, and campaigners to dig deep into the data, surface untold stories, and turn insights into action.

We’re a freelance collective of experienced researchers, journalists, and communicators. That means:

  • You get the skills and rigour of a newsroom, with the ethics and purpose of a campaign team.

  • We can scale up or down depending on your campaign’s needs.

  • We work transparently and collaboratively, ensuring every story we tell is fair, accurate, and delivered with sensitivity.

Our approach is rooted in evidence, empathy, and impact, creating stories that don’t just inform, but inspire change. Click here to see the various ways we can help.

Our associates have delivered projects that blend research and storytelling to drive real-world outcomes, from Fair Game, which exposed the systemic inequalities in football governance, to Suffragette Spirit, which celebrated women activists continuing the fight for equality today.

We bring that same investigative energy and creative storytelling to every campaign we support.

In an age of misinformation and short attention spans, credible, well-researched stories cut through the noise.

  • They make complex issues human.

  • They build trust.

  • They turn empathy into action.

That’s the difference between a story that’s seen — and one that changes something.

Got an issue that needs uncovering — or a campaign that deserves the spotlight? Let’s collaborate. Together, we can turn evidence into impact. Get in touch to discuss your next investigation or campaign.
