Rhodri Davies leads the Giving Thought policy programme at the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), a registered charity that promotes charitable giving and provides financial services and social finance to not-for-profit organisations. Having graduated from Oxford University with a first-class degree in Mathematics and Philosophy, Rhodri embarked on a doctorate in Philosophy but quickly realised that his interests lay elsewhere. He spent two years as a Research Fellow at the think-tank Policy Exchange, where he authored a number of reports on philanthropy, including a major study on philanthropy in the City of London, before joining CAF in 2010. He has just finished writing a book on the role of philanthropy in UK society from a historical and modern perspective, which is due to be published next year.
