The 
Consumer Data Research Centre (CDRC) is working with consumer-related organisations to open up their data resources to our trusted researchers. 
        This enables them to carry out important social and economic research. 
        
        The CDRC was established by the UK Economic and Social Research Council 
        as part of phase two of the Big Data Network to:
		
- Contribute towards ensuring the future sustainability of UK research using consumer data
- Support consumer related organisations to maximise their innovation potential
- Drive economic growth
		We are bringing together world-class researchers from the University of Leeds, University College London, University of Liverpool and the University of Oxford 
		to offer a range of expert services to a wide range of users.
