Who We Are

Born in 2019, Quality of Life Foundation is a UK charity dedicated to improving community wellbeing and challenging traditional housing practices.

Our approach combines rigorous research with practical consultancy, ensuring that our recommendations are both grounded in evidence and achievable in real-world contexts.
